Ruth Stadium Crossbody Bag Kit

Breeze through venue security checks in handmade style with the Ruth Stadium Crossbody Bag Kit by Sallie Tomato! Designed specifically to comply with stadium, arena, and concert clear-bag regulations when made with clear vinyl, the Ruth crossbody blends practical transparency with high-end designer finishes.

Studio Finds Special Deal: This complete kit retails for $59.99, but we have opened the outer packaging box. All inner materials, patterns, clear vinyl, designer accents, webbing, and hardware components remain 100% factory-sealed, unused, and complete! One available at a special Studio Finds price of $49.99.

With its generous interior, sturdy top zipper closure, front zip pocket, and comfortable wide crossbody webbing strap, the Ruth is as fun to stitch as it is to wear on game day or concert night.

Why We Love It

Finding a clear event bag that actually looks chic and lasts more than one season is tough—making your own solves that completely! Sallie Tomato’s kits take all the guesswork out of sourcing thick, pliable clear vinyl and pairing it with matching heavy-duty zippers and boutique-quality metal hardware. Everything is measured, pre-cut, and ready to take straight to your machine.

Sewing Tip: When sewing clear vinyl, use a Teflon/non-stick presser foot or walking foot, clip with Wonder Clips instead of pins, and use a slightly longer stitch length (3.0mm) to prevent perforating the vinyl!

Coral and Olive Inspiration

• Concert & Game Day Companion: Meets most venue clear-bag size policies (always check your local stadium rules) while keeping your phone, keys, lipstick, and sunglasses organized.
• Thread Pairing: Stitch with Glide 40wt Polyester Thread for strong, high-sheen exterior topstitching that won’t weaken under tension against vinyl or hardware.
• Stash Coordination: Tuck in a handmade card wallet or coin pouch sewn from our designer fat quarters for a burst of color tucked inside your see-through bag!
