opps sorry...cut 4 strips about 28 inches long 1 1/2 inches wide...take 1 strip and turn both edges in about 1/8 and pin take another strip and do the same thing...pin together making sure the nice side is facing out on both strips and sew as close to the edge as you cant....this will make 1 strap....fold over one end about 1/2 inch and sew to one side of bag about 1 -2 inches down from top...do the same with other end making sure strap isnt twiseted...repeat for other strap.
