Thought I'd try an oil cloth tote bag. It's tricky to work with, as you can't really use pins and it sticks to the sewing machine!! After some trial and error I discovered that a walking foot and tissue paper prevent it sticking and Sellotape comes on handy for tacking pockets etc on. I still need to add handles, but here's my progress so far.
The outer oil cloth fabric and the lining with pocket attched
'Tacking' the pocket on with sellotape
Peeling off the tissue paper after stitching on the pocket
Attaching the zip to the outer fabric and lining
The inside
The bag so far, minus handles
