It is part of my son's "outfit" to shove a bunch of cars in his pockets each day. Unfortunately he just can't fit them ALL into his pockets, so I thought I'd make him a bag to carry them around in (this also helps avoid the fits being thrown because he can't physically carry 10+ cars in his arms at the same time!)
I used (sort of) the bag from Bend The Rules Sewing (the one with the apples), but made longer straps and different dimensions. . . so basically I just made it up as I went - but I had sewn the Amy Karol one before, which was helpful.
I used the "wrong side" of some denim fabric I had on hand and lined it (and appliqued) with some canvas-y type fabric from Walmart. The straps are just the two strips of fabric sewn together with the edges raw.
I tried to make the bag as manly as I could (w/o spending hours and hours making it).My husband is embarrassed when Carson carries around his "purse" full of cars.

I love his new "MURSE". Quite stylish. Tell Rob that the Lauper boys proudly carry theirs to church each Sunday AND are quiet little mice during Sacrament bcause their "bags" are filled with goodies they packed themselves. LOVE THAT!
