I of course made some changes. I made my straps so they went the full height of the bag and added rivets. I added a front and back pocket between the straps. I mean why not add more pockets, especially on the outside to access some items too? By making the straps longer, the pockets fit between the straps perfectly and it makes sense to lengthen the straps for more stability as well.
This tote with the zipper that unzips all the way around, allows the tote to lie flat on the table for easy access to the rulers and mat. I like how it turned out and it's quite a useful project to make.
I didn't have a large enough table to open this to set it on to see it full opened, so it is hanging to give you the idea of how it opens flat. |
