I just made one -it was a bit larger than the one's shown- My friend brought me over a picture of this bag and says can you make this only bigger. Finished it is 18w x15h x10 -She has to carry a laptop so I added a padded pouch to the back of the bag and a 3 section pouch to the outside of it so she does not have to carry a purse too. It only took 5 days from picture to finished project. Well it took 2 days to find heavy white duck cloth and to tye-dye it before I could really start the construction part. In our defense we spent a wee bit to much time in the fabric stores..it happens every time I get in one them places - I can't leave till I've seen and touched all the fabric. It was a really fun project and I'd do it again now that I know I can.

I am forever misplacing things and thinking they are lost forever, then finding them with a little help from my SIL, sometimes I need to just walk away and come back to look in a few minutes when I am not so frustrated over it. Maybe have someone else look for it with you. A new set of eyes can be a great thing.

Speaking of loosing things, I have a new smart phone I got at Christmas, and still haven't been able to use it. Two weeks ago I took it into Walmart for some help in getting it started, and I guess on the way home I lost my instruction book. I felt for sure I got it home, but I haven't been able to find it. I called the gal who had helped me, and she said she saw me put the manual into my purse. But for some reason I haven't been able to find it. And I can't order a new one - I already tried that.

Agree. Cheaper than therapy and stress! The pattern has 13 pages of instruction. The pattern price is a bargain!
AND, she has revised the pattern a few times since 2003.
