Made a quick paper model to work out the dimensions. As I'll be hand-sewing would it be an idea to glue the seams first with something like bostik and then sew to keep the seams straight?
Looking at the second picture I reckon that top corner where the front flap starts might cause a problem. The angle looks quite severe and the PVC would probably tear quite quickly though opening and closing. Could I avoid this by folding over the edge and making a hem in the corner?
Edit: think I answered my own question by looking at others' creations. Seems I need to make the line from bag to flap smoother, al la this: http://static.lfgss.com/attachments/19959d1263242813-b.jpg
