    That's really cool. I didn't realize that Lauren's book had directions for a messenger bag. I will have to go back and read it again. That is as soon as I find it in the mess that i call a studio. lol...

    I really like you bag and the act that it is reversible. :)

    Fraggle.... I so need to clean my sewing room. I clean every few weeks and it's amazing how much stuff I find that I was looking for. Right now I have three piles of TO Do's and a pile of fabric I just 'discovered' in another pile! LOL! I'm so embarrassed.

    To put the flap on would you do the same thing that you do with the straps, hang them on the inside of the turned outer bag? Hope this made scense. Thanks is advance. :)

    yeah..what i do cuz im such a forgetful stoner ..is..actually baste the flap on the proper way before i turn it all inside out n sew it..so that way i know its on the right way ..n not upside down (done that) or something..you can do it with the straps too to make sure they arent twisted n stuff..
