Using my BORO stitched fabric

 While on a roll with my bag making I found a great tutorial for a crossbody bag. It was easy to make, the tutorial was easy to follow and I used the whole piece.

Watching carefully


After all that stitching now was the time to cut it into pieces.


Changing the design a bit to get more pockets. 


I had a long length of zip with multiple pulls so I used them up too.


I put 2 pulls on each zip. 
You can still see the little fish on the front.


I am loving this bag. I did make it bigger than the tutorial as I wanted to use all the fabric.
I used a strap that I bought in Japan last year.

So many personal (and clever) touches. Beautiful stitching. I can't wait to see the finished product.
