I've been getting quite a few inquiries when it come to this bag. And here I am making one more for someone special.
McCall's 7851 is a wonderful pattern. It is well-drafted and a quick project. I might even go as far to say that this might be suitable for a beginner project.  
The only challenging part was finding a suitable needle for heavy weight thread I needed for sewing the suede. Everything on the outside is the same as the last one that I made.  
The inside is lined with silk and interfaced with a fusible interfacing.  No other changes.  
The Stats
Fabrics:  0.60 metres of cork fabric, 0.60 metres of silk and 0.40 metres of suede
Interfacing: 0.60 metres fusible
Interfacing: 0.60 metres fusible
Pattern:  McCall's 7851
Basting tape:  0.30 metres
Additional Tool & Supplies:  Cutting table, weights, pins, pin cushion, tailor's chalk, clothes pins, scissors, sewing machine, walking foot, a jeans sewing machine needle.
Happy Sewing!
This is so great. Thanks for sharing. Best wishes from Fabrics World USA
