Now I try to carry more in it and stuff falls out, so the next one I make will be longer. And from the ruler you have there, that looks like a nice length. I did put elastic in the straps because I keep my arm a little lower in front so the controls go under my desk, and without the elastic, it keeps sliding forward. But if she keeps the arms level or tilted back a smidge it should work perfectly.
Thanks so much for the input. I never thought of seeing if anyone here might have the measurements I need. I sent along some sticky velcro tabs for her to put on the handles and the armrest so it would stay in place. Thanks again for the advice.
