Thank you for the tutorial site. I just read through it, and thought the handle idea is much better than the dowels I used in the last couple I made. Was playing around with the pattern and put the crosswise, thinking I could make on big pattern and sew it up that way. Not a good idea for me. Maybe someone more talented than I could, but anyway. I like you idea of the button loop and button. I think that can add a little more to the top of the carrier. Thanks again, will post a picture when I get it done, which has to be soon.
