awesome. the pockets on the inside are just wonderful.  my mom always tells me to do pockets like that but i just always seem to forget lol....how exactly did u do them??? they dont look to complex

i love it....i would like to make one for school..did u use a pattern? would u please maybe do a tut?

WOW!!!! I absolutely love what you did with the handles!!! could you possibly share how you did it? 

hey ok thank you guys so much for all the feedback! im glad yall liked it. and about the handles it is real simple......i cut the width of my handles about an inch wider than what i usually do then i layed piping down the middle of the cut piece of fabic. folded the edges under and around the piping until the edges of the fabic met.  sewed along the edge stoping a few inches from the end. i then just put one end flat atop the other and just twisted them around each other.....

well i hope this helps sorry if its a little un clear ive never really explained how ive done this before lol...please let me know if you have any questions or if your just completely lost or even if you get it and it turns out...TELL ME!

aw that is amazing! please def hook us up with a tutorial. i would like to make one for school as well. you did a really awesome job.

aw thanks guys.  my friends @ school couldnt believe that i made it even though they know that ive been sewing all my bags since jr high. one more year of high school than hopefully i can try my talent in the real world. lol thanks

aw thanks alot im working on a bag now so ill prob try this out on it

i love the zebra print...where did you find the fabric? how did you do the zipper pocket on the inside?

hi well this is my 1st post of one of my bags that i have ever posted on here! Ok well i have this friend who is quite wealthy and for her birthday she got this amazing tote bag made by Dooney and Bourke that cost $185.

(click here to see the real thing)  of course i fell in love with it but i decided i probably wouldnt be able to talk my parents in to lending me that kind of money(because i am only 17) i would just make one similar to hers but with a touch of my personality. so......this is what it turned out like...
