Wow! That's very impressive. Where did you manage to find the fabric? That fabric is one of my favorites!

Wow, thank you so much for all your nice comments! I didn't expect to receive so many :D

The fabric I used is actually from Vera Bradley. I bought it from this person on Flickr: https://www.flickr.com/photos/riverk...7621700666815/
Unfortunately I couldn't find the border fabric, so I used the same for everything and 'separated' with piping.

I didn't use a pattern for this. I just looked for pictures of the Vera bag and tried to replicate it. I do can share the pattern pieces I made up on the computer, to try and fit the fabric. I used 1 yard of each fabric for the whole bag.
I will adjust the document a bit (not everything is in English yet) and I'll make a drawing so you can see where each part belongs. That should help you make your own bag.

Hope you don't mind my asking what Fusible Interfacing did you use? I just made Anna Maria Horner's large "Art Student Tote" bag and it was to Floppy (?) or it just doesn't hold up (stand-up) very well.

Love your bag, beautiful fabric, you did a great job.
