It's a beauty.
I see the challenge in it.
You did a great job...

Mine is finally finished, not without it's warts. I changed out the pockets as I wanted zippers & put in some magnetic snap closures on the top. Also added loops for the handles to try & make them a little sturdier. I may hand stitch the liner to the base still, as I don't like the idea of things being able to fall out through the woven strips if they happen to slide under the liner.

You ladies have made awesome bags and both of you chose great colors. Love making bags and this one does seem more challenging that I have done, but it is OH soooo worth the work~!! Great jobs ladies.
