I wonder if you drizzle hot glue onto the back of the rug it would keep it from slipping?

here is the layout for the 5 inch square big bag - sew all 5 inch sq. together in this layout in the shape of an "I", then place the batting on the backside and , cut out your lining (for each side leaving about 1" longer - leave this open for turning your bag to the right side, lay the straps on each side of the bag- so they will be on the inside with only the strap to go over your shoulder on the outside, stitch all four ........."outside 5" squares, batting, straps and lining around the outside egde", leaving the bottom of the lining open for turning right side out.

the bottom of the lining open to.

Like your bag!
The ones I make are usually from upholstery or drapery fabric so I don't use batting or interfacing. I've made them in all sizes from small enough for just a cell phone to big enough to hold a queen size quilt. You could easily add batting or interfacing and do quilting however. The size and intended use of the bag determines how I do pockets and handles. I can make one in a couple of hours or less. I started doing them as a quick baby shower gift when my kids were little. Back then I usually used denim. Takes almost as long to write the instructions as to make one. Lol! But if you would like I can write them for you.
