Tips and thoughts:
This mini tote would also make a nice lunch bag.
More experienced sewists could include a recessed zipper to close the main compartment.
Alternatively, a magnetic snap or Velcro provides a simple closure option if desired. There are many options to personalize practical bags for daily use with pockets, fabrics, hardware, and straps.
