              Great Pattern

              This is a very versatile pattern. I will add additional zipper/slip pockets on the next one. Mine has a cotton front zipper pocket and the rest in leather. I did not interface any of the main purse parts except the for the cotton pocket piece and cotton linings.

              The challenge I was looking for

              This bag not only meets the criteria of wanting a ton of pockets but its great to stash most anything you want. I love the front pocket. Ive only made one so far, shes right when she says its not for beginners. I had some trouble with the strap flaps but I went back to her video and poof it makes perfect sense now. I made mine out of vinyl and cotton fabric. It was for my sister in law whos pretty picky when it comes to her purse. She loves it. My advice is take it slow and read and re-read the directions, you'll do great.
