Biggest project yet

Today I found this great tutorial for a big shopper handbag:

Here is my first result. I am stoked and a little proud :)

Because I saw the inspiring pics in the tutorial I decided to have two different fabrics on the outside and I think it looks more interesting this way, don't you? Also, I added a small zipper bag on the inside and a Kam Snap in the middle to be able to close the bag. On the next bag (which I will totally make, very soon!!) I will shorten the straps to carry it in the crook of the arm and maybe also a bigger extra inside bag that parts the shopper bag in the middle.
