Here's a pretty parting shot of the fabric I chose to line it with. It was just something I had in my stash, but it was perfect. :)

A green sweater to purse re-fashion!
I am LOVING how it turned out! I had originally planned to offer this in my shop, but I changed my mind. This baby is my new purse/diaperbag.
Aren't the cables pretty? And I didn't have to spend days making them. Awesome. Don't get me wrong, I really enjoy knitting/crocheting, but sometimes it's nice to bust something out in a naptime! Which is about how long this took me.
I say about because it would have taken a naptime had I not broken three, yes, three needles. Oy.
Can I just add that before this time I had never broken a needle. Ever. I was pretty annoyed. But, in the end I won, the machine worked and the purse turned out exactly how I envisioned. I love it when that happens.
