I agree, I use what ever strikes my fancy at the time. I have made probably a couple hundred bags/purses over the years. If you want one that will last long, try denim or upholstery fabric. You can also put feet on the bottom so the bottom corners don't get worn out quite so soon.
Just beware, making bags is addictive
