    The cutting out took longer than anything and keeping track of what you cut. After that it was a breeze to put together. The two things I would change would be not to use the decor bond in the lining also, too much of a good thing. I will use something lighter. And I would change the zipper in the top to a sport zipper, one with bigger teeth.

    I have requests from a niece for one, that one will be in Nebraska colors.

    thanks for the tips...always good to know what to leave out/change when doing a bag pattern!
