I need a new diaper bag for the babe. Not huge, I don't carry a lot of stuff, just a couple (maybe 3) diapers, some wipes, maybe a blanket, and a change of clothes. Most ready-made diaper bags are too big for what I need.

Of course, I'm dreading making one, lol. So many steps, pockets, etc - not sure if my brain can handle it! It's a UFO in my mind already, lol.

Anyone have a good pattern recommendation? I'm thinking a messenger style might be good, but I'm not set on it. TIA!

I think I remember there being a messenger bag sew along. I could be mistaken but that would mean you can adjust to your favorite size easily.

what about this amy butler one...looks easy enuf..I'm getting one to try out, not to big, not to small, well for me anyway

I was flipping through simplicity patterns yesterday and they had a diaper bag pattern for quite a few variations. But I don't have any experience with it and I would think you could customize your own with all the pockets and stuff you specifically want just by using any bag pattern. But a diaper bag pattern might give you some ideas.
