Stroller/Diaper Bag: First Prototype

Here is my first attempt at a simple, collapsible diaper bag to fit on a stroller, based on my observations with Mindy. Here it's on the studio 'test' stroller.


It fits well on the stroller — I've oriented the straps so that when full, the bulk of the bag will be side to side, minimizing interference (the straps on Mindy's bag were the opposite). I quickly realize though that it will not fit on any other type of stroller.
The center compartment, constructed from an extra panel, may be too roomy- making it so that quick reach items may not be visible from above, like Mindy's bag.
Here are a few more details:

I'm happy with the overall size so far, and that it isn't an obvious diaper bag. Next step is to try to minimize the inner space, and make the straps more flexible. A more durable material then this scrap fabric is necessary, though a simple to clean cloth could be a necessity.
