I wanted a small messenger bag for an upcoming vacation. I found a pattern that helped me figure out how a messenger bag was put together. I came up with the measurements by myself so I could make exactly what I wanted. I included an adjustable strap so I could wear it across my body or over my shoulder. Here is the finished product!!!

Here’s the inside ….. I put 2 pockets inside, one for my cell phone and one for a pen/pencil.

My friend J wanted a bag, and she had lots of very specific requests.  Here are the results.  I am happy with how it turned out, but offering a zipper top will not be one of my regular options.  Maybe I’ll add it my list of things to work on and then I could offer it later.  There is a lot of work to do to get the measurements right.

This is the front of the bag:
