I saw this cabana bag in this catalogue & I thought it was really clever with the screen in it, I knew that I had to try to come up with my own, sew here is my version. the 2cd picture is the inside I made it sew it would hold a water bottle. & the other side has an evelope zipped pocket & it has a snap tag to hold keys too! I am pleased with the result & am looking forward to some warmer weather sew that I can use it. I still have to add a foam core for the bottom of the bag.

The water bottle holder will be handy. Was the screen hard to sew with? I have visions of it shredding strand by strand. lol

For those who did not know, there is a cloth screen that can be used for bags. It embroiders beautifully. You did a great job with this bag.

I used fibreglass insect screening 36"x 40" tube & it costs about $15 Canadian. sew pricey It is really soft screening too sew it was ok to sew with but I did make sure that the raw edges were sewn over @least twice sew as not to poke holes anywhere. Plus the fabric covers all the "ends" too. probably ok to wash but will hang to dry. Thanks everyone Hugs Loralye
