I'm sure you'll think of something. A bag with red leather, perhaps? Your floral bag looks so professional. Well done!

Ooh, I do like that @RJR_38  Is the purple bit leather or similar?

@Ploshkin the purple fabric is a new waterproof nylon/canvas the lady who I buy my PU from has started selling. It is completely waterproof (I tried and the water just sits on top), is thick like a heavy canvas but cuts and sews beautifully. I have some in this purple, a fuchsia pink and a pale turquoise

What a fabulous bag and I love all aspects of it from the fabric to the hardware. Job well done and can't wait to see the next one you make.

That is stunning and looks well-made & functional as well. I love the bits of solid purple you use as accents.

I love a coated patterned bag...The only ones I use are the old style Fossil keyper bags.
