Structure
This bag gets its stability from the Decovil Light or other thinner stabilizer we use at strategic places. The flap is made with a layer of high loft fleece AND a layer of Decovil Light to give it some stability and volume at the same time.
Fabric suggestion
For the exterior, we use two different fabrics/colours.
I suggest you use quilting weight cotton for the exterior2 pieces and whatever fabric you fancy for the exterior1 parts.
This pattern has been tested with quilting cotton, upholstery, cork and vinyl. For the lining and the gussets, all testers used a thinner material (like quilting cotton).
