Not a bag, you'd carry your camera around in, but a bag that actually looks like a camera, with the neck strap of the camera being the bag handles.
Being a Canon girl, this is my favorite recycle grocery bag. :)

So I've heard that you ain't a female member of the flickr community until you do a "What's in your bag?" haha so here it is :P
(Move mouse over photo to see notes)
I hate the fact that all camera bags look like camera bags. This is not a good thing when you're traveling in a third world country or any large city. Basically a big new shiny camera bag screams "look I have loads of expensive stuff you can steal from me".
I live in a big city and often travel to third world countries.
This weekend I had some time over and decided to make my own camera bag from my old worn backpack.
Total cost about 200 Swedish kroner = 25 usd.
The bag holds 2 houses, 3 lenses, external flash, laptop

I collect shopping bags... not because I am a great shopper (not), but because I love them as vessels, containers and they feel wonderful in the hands and ripped open.... great graphic symbols for me as a starting point for my art......... I paint on them with great passion as they are transporters holding great energy and excitement for me............. What is interesting is this idea of the personal found object rather than the simple random selection of the mundane or utilitarian. Recycling is the way to go for our western materialistic civilization! I love the idea of incorporating our environment into the work. There is beauty in everything and I put it together so that the viewer can see it. I think that’s what makes art compelling… it’s about showing something that is very human and vulnerable in all of us, and not having (too much) fear about exposing it...........
Reece's MK3 Golf VR6 on air ride. He persuaded me to do a few day shots because with it being summer it's not dark until late.
For those wondering, he's done all the mods himself including the matte blue paint job! It's a great looking car, both inside and out!
Mum’s Day-tripper Bag
The majority of what I am designing at the moment is baby related! I have a 5 month old girl and a 3 year old boy and have an endless list of items that I want to design to make things easier or prettier or both!
This bag is really 3 items in one. The main bag, a change mat that acts as a compact changing bag in its own right and a toy I have named the sleepy fish!
I used the layer cake by cutting the squares diagonally into equal strips and piecing these for the main bag. I then used the off-cuts of this with some yardage to make the outside of the changing mat. The remaining squares (the louder, busier ones) were used to make all the components of the sleepy fish toy.
The main bag has 2 elastic sections at the sides designed to hold bottles or anything you need to hold upright, like lotion. There is a large zipped pocket for all your ‘mum’ bits – phone, purse, lippy etc. I have included the eyelet on a flap just inside the bag. This was primarily to hold my sleepy fish toy but could also be used for keys. As with any item that comes in contact with children it needed to be sturdy! I put metal studs on the bottom to protect the fabric and a plastic bag base to help maintain the shape and stability. I have also inserted tubing into the handles for extra strength and interfacing has been used throughout.
The compact changing bag is padded and wipe clean. It has enough storage for a basic change kit. i.e. two or three nappies, wipes and disposal bags. I designed it to be carried within the main bag for a quick change. Once the mat is unfolded all the other bits you need are right there. No more rummaging in your bag to find them mid-change! It is also great when you child is a little older and you don’t need to carry so much ‘stuff’ around. It can just be hung on the back of the push chair and doesn’t take up too much space. As you may have noticed, my laptop wrap, submitted in the audition round was born from this design as the fold up function is so quick and compact.
Although you can’t see it, the sleepy fish toy has a ball rattle inside and all the scales and fins have a crinkly cellophane sewn in to make lots of noises. Perfect for entertaining your baby while you change her. There is a hanging loop with Velcro so it can be attached easily to the eyelet inside the bag or onto a pushchair etc
Happy day-tripping!
I was sorting through my bags today and decided that I need a new system-and that's what i came up with :)

My mom gave me this bag a while back when I said I wanted a bigger one for knitting (she hadn't used it in years). I'm determined to start taking all my projects everywhere so that I always have something to work on when idle somewhere. I have a lot of Christmas knitting to do and want to start knitting all the time for gifts and my Etsy shop. Well, the bag is not very pretty, so I haven't used it before now. It's kind of vintage, but seems more to me like it's trying to be vintage. It just screams 1980's grandma.
Well, I finally decided to use it when my library bag was starting to wear out and become too small for my knitting load. This thing is AWESOME. Firstly, the top just pulls open. It has metal strips in the seam that bend to stay open, or bend to snap shut (note the perfect 6-sided opening in the photo below). It has pockets for needles and various other things. It's practically bottomless (for now). I have tons of yarn and projects in it already and there's so much room. The straps and bag itself are padded, so it's comfy to carry, too.
I don't know any easy way to cover it up, but I'll deal with the granny feel to it because it rocks.
The mighty and unsuspected contents of the bag I'm attached to during my nederlandse life...
For my blog entry: jotabege.blogspot.com/2009/05/whats-in-your-bag.html
I got a new bag! It's great and very useful!
念願のビリンガムを購入！色は散々迷った挙げ句、カーキにしました。先日の小石川後楽園へ行くときに使ってみましたが、とにかくカメラが取り出し易い。前面のベルトが簡単に外せるようになっており、開閉が楽々です。巨大なD700に巨大なAF-S NIKKOR 85mm f/1.4G を装着していても、収納可能な上、交換用に持ち出した50mm標準レンズ、財布その他諸々入り見た目以上の収納力です。ただし、D700を入れると多少膨らんでしまいますが…それでもパンパンに張った状態にはなりません。
更にやろうと思えばMacBook Air '11も入りそうですが…流石にMacBook Airにダメージがありそうなので止めました。
パッと見カメラが入っているように見えないので普段から色々と使えそうです。
This reversible bag is a design I drew up after seeing similar bags in Japan a few years ago and Melbourne more recently. It is fully reversible and has a circular base. It is based on Japanese Knot bags. I made this one for my lovely MIL - modelling here.
Tutorial will be added here shortly:
i took a wee little break from drawing, quite frankly my wrist AND my neck were hurting so i decided to give this a shot!

Aaaand I know my flash kinda killed this picture. Sorry!

It alone is larger than many of the smaller models.

This tote bag was made based upon a commercial one I had bought a few years ago. It is to be the "wrapping" for the Christmas gifts for SIL2.
An absolutely fabulous pattern from The Happy Zombie - and it's free! It's a very small bag - better for lunch or gifts. I might try to make a larger one using the same pattern.
The fabrics are: Daydream by Cyndi Walker (main bag and pocket) and Amy Butler Full Moon Polka Dots in Lime (strap).
