Ube - I sew deeper seams in the lining, with this bag probably a 3/8" seam (with a 1/4" seam on the exterior), with a quilted outer I go even deeper, probably closer to 1/2" so the lining isn't baggy.

Brenda, I got the fabrics from Hobby Lobby and Joann's so no collection as such, they just all worked together pretty well.

Thanks so much for this tip. Deeper seams will be on the program for the next bag I make. Love yours!

You're very welcome Ube, I also pin the lining into the body and check for fit (and do any further adjusting) before sewing it in to get it as snuggly a fit as I can. Not always 100% perfect but more often than not it works pretty well.

Thanks everyone for such kind comments, they're deeply appreciated. :)
