This denim bag is charming. The inner zipped lining is a bit tricky as the opening for the zipper relates to the beginning of creating a bound button-hole type space. Eliminate the inner zipper and substitute a simple patch pocket attached to the inner lining would transfer this pattern from an intermediate to a more easy level. I love the challenge of piecing denim triangles together however cutting the denim scraps into long strips would also be an alternate fast-easy change. Useful totes or bags from scrap denim are the ultimate recycling project!
