  3. My sister makes my purses, so the only bags I make are the tote type. Sorry I'm no help.

  6. Can you post a picture of a ready made version? Someone might just be able to whip one up for you.

  7. I'm not one who enjoys making bags...so I rarely buy bag patterns and rarely look at them online, either. Sorry I can't be more help on this. :(

  10. Tonya,
    AP&Q just posted 19 free bag patterns. Maybe you can find something there, or modify one of them. Enjoy the search!

    very quick to make and you can add patch pockets instead of a zippered one. the metal rings you can get at home depot and I love the sassy bow on the shoulder strap. (mauh) Liz
