Wondering

Finding the size for you bag, there isn't a specific size so the bigger the better I say

Lookin Good

Find other material that looks nice for the bag ( I chose the border on the arm)

Nice and Tidy

Make sure you make two side so you can make the bag .......

Cutting

2014 17:12.jpg
Make sure that the two bottom corner are rounder by cutting them

Together

Put the material together (one on too of the other) the start sewing the bag leaving around 1 insh on the top ( make sure you sew them upside down as you will turn the bag inside out

Nearly Done

When you have done the outside turn it inside out

Presentation

Now add the strip/strips of the material onto the top where the string shall pass through

Crochet

2014 17:12.jpg
I didn't have any string so I whipped up a chain of brown crochet wool which made a perfect rope

Sew the Flap

2014 17:12.jpg
Sew the flaps down so there is a gap for the rope to pass through ( when doing this I would recommend that you keep the rope in it first ) I put the string in it by threading it in with the needle

Tidy

Tidy up everything and then add buttons to the end of the string/ rope ( it's up to you if you want buttons)

Finally
