It's got slots for all size needles from 0000 to 12, circulars, and the inside is great to store a project. I wish I had used a stiffer interfacing, and I wish I could post a picture, but it worked great! Thank you for this pattern!

If you're still stuck, you can instead do the outside gussets just like the inside gussets.

It has to be in the house somewhere (I think) but for the life of me I can't find it. Sorry. If you wanted to be on the safe side you could cut the bag body a few inches larger, and follow the directions just the same to make a slightly larger bag. :) Georgiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16098769340141865316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2322864304061375013.post-65493131805698318392017-05-26T08:57:35.283-04:002017-05-26T08:57:35.283-04:00Hello, I love this and want to try and make my own...Hello, I love this and want to try and make my own, I have one question though:<br /><br />Is this bag large enough for a regular sized ring-binder folder to fit comfortably?

You can fo...No, it won't be much harder at all! You can follow the steps to make any size bag you want. :) If you make it larger I would change a couple things to fit the proportions. You'll probably want to make the exterior pockets a couple inches wider so the straps can be a couple inches farther apart. Also maybe try making the gussets deeper (5-6" instead of 4"), but that's more personal preference.
