Thanks! I have it down to around 6 hours or so. Each one I plan as I go. I am a stickler for detail, so I probably take a bit longer than I should, but the outcome is very satisfying. I love to shop for the jeans in the thrift shops, looking for good quality, not much wear and tear, and decorations o. pockets etc. Then, I try to match a fabric that will go with each. Because I line the straps, use fusible fleece on the lining, and make lots of divided pockets inside, Plus I add a key clip tab and matching tissue packet cover, it all adds up.
