Does anyone know how to make a sling bag?

i want to make a bag like this from really trippy fabric i found at a thift store. does anyone have a pattern for it or anything?

 

looks pretty simple, i bet you just cut out two u-shaped pieces and sew them together, with a lining of course.

 

i just don't want to fuck it up thats all haha

 

I use tracing paper to mock it up first, then you can tape them together and figure seam allowances, etc. and see how it fits so you don't have to hack the fabric seeing what works. Learned that the hard way:& and from watching my youngest daughter...that kid makes any and everything with tape and paper.

I agree, very nice tut. I learn a lot on how to make an sling bag.
