Megan from The Crafty CPA guest blogs at Someday Crafts with a tutorial showing how to use a man’s button down shirt to make a messenger bag. The front of the shirt (with the button placket) becomes the flap of the messenger bag. Cool!! She used a denim fabric for the other portions of the bag. The contrast is nice and it is more heavyweight than the lightweight cotton from the shirt. Get the tute.
