I think you could put a plastic or wooden handle in first and then stitch it down instead of the cord.

That is a good idea, I might try to add the handle. Thanks

I actually considered laying the cording in before stitching it so I wouldn't have to work it through with a safety pin. But it was a small bag, so I didn't do it. But I would on a big bag. The purse handle should work well for you.

Sorry, I mention several times throughout the pages that no pattern is needed and that I would do a tutorial on how to make it. I give the link for the tutorial on page 6. It is in blue and you click on the link and it takes you to it.

Here it is again.
