First time I tried it I put the inside in the wrong way round... then I left the straps outside rather than inside, resulting in them behind hidden when the bag was the right way round,hehe. Managed it in the end, just need to work on improving my shabby sewing! I love this, thanks so much.

I've made 7 of them and everyone loves them. It's so nice to give a gift in a personalized tote bag (and good for the environment!). The only thing I add is a pocket or two to both outside and lining. Thanks!! Your tutorial was awesome! I’ve made 7 of them and everyone loves them.

I've made it today, and am really pleased with how it turned out. I'm feeling pretty proud of myself! Your instructions were straightforward and easy to follow, thanks very much for your post.

Came out great - thank you!
