I just finished making this bag, it took me three hours to make from start to finish. I do not use patterns and made it up as I went along!
It is very strong, made from double layer coffee bag sack jute and fully lined in good quality poly cotton, double stitched seams and triple stitched handles for strength. .
The coffee sack comes from Cafe Buzz, Peachtree Walk: if you are in Port Macquarie NSW visit their cafe!
The bag itself is 45cm *35 cm making it plenty large enough for books, pens, pencils, wallet, phone, magazines. A great 'holiday' tote bag. Machine washable on gentle, and iron on HOT with starch for best results!
I am considering making more of these to sell in my etsy store and via my facebook page.
