When you are the designer, you tend to think that you have the best ideas when it comes to coordinating fabrics. So when a customer sends an email requesting two fabrics that you never considered...Purple Hemp fabric with Joel Dewberry's Chestnut Hill Narrow Strip Yellow...I had a few doubts. 
However, I put aside my doubts, because yellow and purple really do go well together. (Who knew, that color wheel was correct). As I started construction those little doubts were replaced with wondering why you questioned your customer's idea in the first place.I did have to make some changes, since the interior was not the typical 10oz canvas that I use...I decided I had to reinforce the cotton fabric with a strong interface and used a tighter multiple stitching....
So if you would love a Purple Hemp Messenger Bag with a yellow strip interior...each bag has reinforced stitching and can accommodate a large laptop and a book or two.
