The quickest way to make it -- is by making it as a really big cuff and then just sewing the bottom together. It takes way longer (and more string) if you make separate panels and sew them together.

make sure with the fishing line very durable. maybe a weight tolerance of 25 pounds at least so that with the beads and things in it, the string won't snap. i'm still working on trying to make my first bag. got first panel done though. happy

use cord, like the cloth type that doesn't stretch and also go through it with one strand of fishing line :] also cut off a very long piece of cord and fishing line so you won't have knots everywhere and stuff
