Me and messenger bags have a special kind of friendship!  I can’t even remember how many I’ve owned over the years.

 

I made a messenger bag tutorial a couple of years ago and recently decided I wanted to make another one.  The new one is for a smaller bag with a divider inside so an e-reader or book can be carried along with your basic purse items.

I really love how the bag came out.  I also had a lot of fun coming up with strap ideas.  I don’t really enjoy making purse straps so for my first crossbody I cut a strap off an older, unwanted bag.  For the one in the tutorial I used a dog leash purchased from Dollar Tree.  It was so easy and for only $1, it was much better than making a strap.
