Very good. I am messing around with making small bags and this gives me inspiration to look bigger (smile). You did a great job. Thank you for sharing.

Thanks, this actually came as a "kit" from HObby Lobby. Now that I have the instructions and a pretty good idea of what I am doing, I'm on a roll :) but my question is, what can go between the outer and inner fabrics to make the bag stronger?

It only came with the fabric and to me it's rather flimsy.

thanks
