Questions on tote bags
I need ideas/opinions on what features to add to a tote bag I am making for my DD. She has accepted a position as an 8th grade teacher for the next school year and wants a tote for school. I have asked her what she wants and she is absolutely no help, leaving it entirely up to me. I want to put a large pocket on both outside pieces, big enough for papers....and pockets all the way around the inside about 10" deep. I don't think it needs any zippered pockets like a purse, but what am I missing? I am going to use 1" nylon webbing for the straps, sewn from the very bottom seam for extra strength. I am not using a specific pattern, so I can add whatever seems appropriate. TIA
