That's a super cute bag! I love that it's also washable. You could also take advantage of the opening in the "lining"/pillow encasement to stitch a pocket onto before closing the opening up. If you wanted a more structured bottom, you could use a cutting mat from the dollar tree, cut to size. Maybe it's possible to shorten the black strap by weaving a black or contrasting cord through the length, pulling it to gather the strap, attaching to the strap hardware, and leaving some ends out for fringe detail? Getting creative is exercise for the brain. It can be fun or sometimes challenging, but it will certainly encourage neuroplasticity, and that's always a good thing.

Hi Orly, love, LOVE! This. Simple, fun but gorgeous!
I'm a backpack person. Not sure why. I'm 60 in less than 2 weeks. So our school bags weren't backpacks!
I crochet also. So that touched me also. Lol and I wish there was time to crochet it myself.
Which brings me to a suggestion. I have a problem. I am currently well, bed ridden. So it's killing me that I can't go to a thrift store. We have a Goodwill just a few blocks away. Some times one of my sons will look for me. Lol he's sweet to do it for me. But we live in a small village, so things may be hard to find. He will take pictures and send them to me while on the phone.
My suggestion: ebay. They are more expensive like 2 for $15. There was variety and a few colors like mulberry. Also you can find just one and not two if you don't have plans for the second.
Another similar option might be Facebook marketplace if you can find someone who ships.
I'll probably get one from ebay and hand sew it as I can't sit for long periods of time. That was another thing about this project. You don't necessarily need a sewing machine.
You hit this out of the ball park! I love it!

Three things make my Sunday perfect; lunch with my family, a Dunkin' iced coffee, and a new Orly-approved DIY. There's a Goodwill near my house, so I might go there and check out their linens section to see if I could make something like this for myself! 🙂
