I learned some things I hadn't really taken note of before...like the "pinch, pull, pin" idea with the straps, and the button-up bottom box (yah, I know...alliteration all around LOL). I usually make bags for gifts instead of using wrapping paper, which just gets thrown away. I think these are my favorites so far, other than the lined ones I make for grocery shopping.

Adding if you want to press outside edge seams with a nice edge first press the seam flat, then fold and press. Just roll the bag or whatever back a bit to press flat. Not sure where I learned that but I too kept doing that little rolly rolly thing with fingers to try to get the seam pulled al the way out to edge.
