I like your variation – I think the wider band gives it a nicer shape. IKEA fabric is always a winner too.

I agree with Baobab, best var. so far. I am going to make this bag soon, printed the patten on Thursday and was also considering making the top band go all the way to the top but I will keep the handles as they are. Nice job!

This is probably the best Estelle I’ve seen so far! I also like your modifications a lot, so: congratulations!
