DIY No-Sew Camera Purse

For a few months now I've been searching for a new camera bag, but couldn't find just the right one! Then I came across a couple tutorials, here , here and here on how to turn a purse into a camera bag and I became intrigued, the only problem was I don't know how to sew and I didn't have the perfect purse! Well, hubby must have read my mind (or my hinting payed off) because for Mother's Day he bought me this gorgeous Max and Cleo Satchel. 
and a week later I began my "no-sew" camera purse design.
I used 1 inch foam, fabric, sticky back velcro and fusible bonding web, I followed a few of the tutorial mentioned above, substituting actual sewing with fusible bonding!
Now I have a super functional and super cute camera purse!

  4. OMG, this is so awesome! I have been on this same quest, trying to find the right camera bag (and not have to use the HUGE one from Canon.) Now you have really inspired me to tackle making one for myself. :)
