Hi Kristin,
I am sure that Richard or the other students have some great suggestions also, however, while I am new to the Academy, I have been making bags for a while now. I have found that a thin foam works wonders for a lightweight, durable lining that is collapsible yet holds it’s form well. There is a product called Flexfoam that many use for this purpose. Hope this give you an idea. Love your design – can’t wait to see it in finished form! I LOVE cork!!
