Often, before taking a trip, I make myself a new purse (I started this in 2009; I have a lot of purses strewn around the house). I decided that I would try to make a slightly larger purse this time; one that would also hold my two cameras, as well as my iPad and usual purse stuff. I'm determined to do my two week trip with one carry one suitecase and my purse; so I have a lot of inventing packing and storing to do.
So, I present my purse/camera bag:
I printed out one of my Photoshop images (my older daughter as an elf) to make a zippered pocket on the purse flap.

Under the flap is the front of my purse, with another zippered pouch, this one with another of my Photoshop images.

I put another zippered pouch on the back of my purse. This one is cushioned/quilted and is big enough to hold my iPad and my trip journal.

I made this side pocket to hold my folding cane or a water bottle.

This side pocket will also hold a fair amount of stuff.

This is the inside of my bag; more pouches and two links for attachments.
