Side Bag

This was one of the not so good side bag I've stitched. Attaching the straps on the outer side part of the bags was not a very good idea. My advise is it should be not seen. So I always stitch and attach the straps from the inside. And at that time I did not have a matching thread so I went for a white thread which did not make the bag better.
