Have you tried to incorporate cork fabric with your waxed canvas bags?
If one wants to use funky fabrics, how do you protect them so they don’t wear out. I find the waxed canvas options very limited.

Looking to make a more professional looking bag, not just tossed together. The special tricks that create a look for now and later.
Great to see so many bag makers all in one place. I’m Deby, Craftsy Instructor for the Sewing Wallets class. Just a quick mention to let you all know I’m starting a new site next month aimed at beginners. That’s beginners to sewing or those new to bag-making. There will be a lot of bag-making and sewing tutorials and videos. Plus a range of new patterns all with videos and designed with new bag-makers and sewers in mind. Come and join me as we get started at SewSimpleBags.com
Great to hear.
