This is a great bag! It's a good size and has optional inner pockets which you can of course modify to suit your preferences. I used a simple cotton with H640 for the main fabric so it holds a bit of shape but has a soft squishy appearance and feel. I opted for a self fabric tie strap and managed to use only 0.5m of main fabric for the medium size. I really enjoyed making my first one and there will definitely be more.
