JDpenelope said... Great review. Question: Did your "passion suede" fabric ravel? (Yesterday, the faux ultra suede on the bolt at JoAnn's was raveling, so I didn't get it as a substitute for ultra suede.) I want this pattern just so I can learn Linda's strap technique. But I made her Obie bag and thought the instructions were just awful. This bag might be what I'm looking for -- to use as a large carryon bag with lots of pockets. Thanks for the helpful review. 6/15/09 9:34 AM
