The idea is to keep all your daily essentials together in one bag, so it's easier to move them around when you need to switch bags. I love keeping things in order, so I looked everywhere online to find one I like so I can put it on my Christmas list (yes, John-Michael and I make Christmas lists each year), but I didn't like the material, size, and the bright colors it came in. So I just decided to make one myself.
I liked the simplicity of this one from Muji (except it's the size of a pencil case) - so I went for a bigger version of it for my bag.

I wish I was better at taking pictures of the progress, but once I get focused it's hard for me to stop for pictures... so here it is! The finished product. :P
All my stuff fits in perfectly (I don't carry around much) and I put a zipper on it so I can throw the bag around without worrying about things falling out of it.
[I replaced the zipper handle with a leather strap]
Mission accomplished!
Alright bag lady, I needed a short break from work, and what better place than your blog to sniff around! I am blown away by your craft skills. BLOWN!
