I spent all yesterday evening on my project. I made some fused plastic sheets using a tutorial from Etsy Labs. I followed the directions exactly, and it worked out perfectly. I kept the windows open, but there were no burning plastic fumes at all. The fused plastic is pretty sturdy. Then I sewed a bag from the plastic sheets, and added a magnet latch and strap from an old purse. I covered the magnets with some crocheted button covers, which I don't really think match well (and I might change later). I'm happy with my endeavor overall.
