AliceB said... Allie, Nice review...I've been dithering about for several months about making my DD a messenger bag for a laptop case. Thanks for the basting suggestions - a step I often avoid.

Mary Stiefer said... I'm unable to send you a PM because you don't have that little 'send" button on your profile. Just wanted to tell you that I found a package of magnetic snaps at Joann's - 6 for $2.99. Granted, they aren't the best quality - but it will last as long as I want to keep the purse. They were in the little bins that Joann's had all over the place when their sale was on. No info on the package, just a white board with the snaps set on it and covered in clear plastic wrap. Hope that helps. P.S. I love your purse. 12/17/05 10:44 AM

Alliekat said... Thanks everyone! It isn't perfect, but I plan to make a few more and one similar like this for myself. My husband suggested some velcro or snap closures for the messenger bag too.
Thanks for the info, Mary! I'll try them today.
