How can I make this bag (quilted on the top with foam) more substanial?
This is the second bag I made...the first one will not be seen...lol.
Anyway, the construction was ok but I don't like the way it turned out. I quilted the top with foam and used vinyl on the bottom, and I don't like that the vinyl folds in on the bottom. I used vinyl because I thought it would make the bag a little more substantial. I also don't like the baggy inside. When sewing the lining I used a 5/8 seam allowance instead of 1/4 inch so that the bag may be less baggy and I used a lightweight water-resistant canvas thinking that would add weight. I probably would have been better off using thick fusible fleece.
Would love any suggestions. Thank you!
