I got the bug to make a laptop bag yesterday. I wanted a simple quilted one with a main area for the laptop, an inside pocket for the AC cord and a small inside pocket for pens, paper etc. In general I am pleased with the bag but when I pick it up, it gapes open and I don't like that. I don't want to go to the trouble of adding a zipper, I would consider buttons but I'd rather just leave it open. I rarely take my laptop out of the house anyway so it's not worth much effort.
I put the handles on asymmetrically by mistake so I need to redo them. If I put them closer together, more towards the middle, I think that may help. Is that correct? I'm pretty sure one long handle like a messenger bag would be much worse, right?
Any other ideas? Simple stuff please!
Thanks fellow sewists.

This is the inside view. I'm quite pleased with how everything fit.

This is what I'm unhappy with.
