If you do something like this, make any inside pockets on your lining before sewing the sides up, also quilt the long flat piece before you double to make it a bag, add handles and you are done. I box the bottoms like most purse patterns call for. One of these has a zipper top, the other only Velcro. Would have to add that I turned the tops down to the inside so the bag wasn't so deep, sometimes if the lining is really pretty I turn it to show on the outside. Have fun and do your own thing.Hope this helps.
Thanks so much Colleen. I will have to try the birthing method.
