Thats a Great Job Grey! I was in store the other day and saw a yellow one of those bags, not as nice as yours at all. The price on the bag was over 1000.00

Thanks!  If only I could sell it for the same amount!

Very nice!

It seems very  simple in appearance, but I can't see how you put it together.

Would you care to share your  build method?

thanks

Actually I nabbed it from a pdf on these forums!  The pattern was NOT intuitive for me at all, at one point I was baffled how it would actually end up working, but I just kept doing what it told me to do and it hit that click point where you go "Oooooh THAT'S how that works."  I did modify the pattern to make a shoulder strap instead of a wrist strap though.

Wow!  That's lovely.  With all the detail, I'm guessing you put in quite a few hours there.

Far too many, but some of that was fumbling around because it's the first time I made it.
