How hard is it to work with fondant to make the parts of a baby diaper bag look real?
I have to do one for next weekend and would appreciate any tips to help me prevent potential problems. I know enough to make all the items to be placed in the bag ahead of time. What I fear most is placing the fondant on the sides of the "bag" in a way that won't make it look like a big blob!

Thanks!

I did mine gathered like a big pocket. But that was the type of bag I did.

I also used a tailors wheel to put a lot of stitching on it. Wherever there would be stitching on a real bag.
