I own two VB bags. One is a tote bag and the other is her weekender bag with matching makeup case. I love them but I won't buy anymore because I just love fabric and would want too many of them. I see beautiful pre quilted fabrics at Joanns that are reversible and would make pretty faux VB bags if you didn't want to do all the quilting. I think there are a lot of bag patterns available so you shouldn't have any trouble making a beautiful bag.
