Default Dropped my featherweight tonight but I got lucky. Show me your bags! ;)

I've been carrying "Ronnie" in a reusable shopping bag - inside her case and wrapped in a custom made liner that packs her in quite tightly.

Tonight, the straps broke on the shopping bag and she crashed to the floor from hip height (the straps were over my shoulder). DH and I looked at the calamity (she may have dented the floor in the kitchen and a helmet visor in the stairwell next to the kitchen leapt off a shelf - apparently from fright when she hit too) and decided that her liner helped both her and the case survive the fall. (Think packing tightly for shipping)

So,... It would appear I need a new bag to carry her in. I've been poking around the internet looking at the bags others have made to carry the whole case and all but I was wondering what others here are doing.

My cousin is suggesting this with modifications to fit Ronnie's case:

I really like the straps all the way under and around but I wonder if the mesh is strong enough?
