I made this messenger bag with my teenage daughter in mind, but I’m loving it enough that I think I’ll keep it for myself! It’s called the Campus Messenger Back and it’s perfect for back-to-school time! I’ve got a tutorial and pattern for you over at Orange Bettie. It’s big enough to hold a small laptop, but it’s not so huge that it’s cumbersome to carry. It would be great for college kids or high schoolers to take the classes, study groups, or trips to the library. I am so very far from my teen and college years, but I do tend to take my blogging with me to the library and coffee shops, which is why I’m planning to steal it for myself.
