My best friend found your site and got one of your bags.
I want you to know that I was given a bunch of fabric scraps and fashioned my own "Scrap Bags!" I have been taking orders for them and make them as fast as I possibly can. In fact, people have been custom ordering fabric bags. I have a Brother embroidery machine and I do a design on them with their name: i.e.. Nancy's Shopping Bag.
And, by the way, I have a wonderful 36 year old Elna sewing machine as well so I can stitch up bags while the other machine is embroidering...it sews as well.
My bags are slightly different in construction: I fold the edges of the strap fabric to the center, then in half wit the raw edges inside. I stitch down each side of the straps. I cut rectangles and then sew 3 inches across each corner of the outside fabric. When I put the lining in I simply stitch straight across the bottom and stuff it inside not worrying about making the "boxed corner" on the lining. Real easy and people LOVE them!
