50 projects. Artsy. Text heavy. No patterns or templates. Very few tips and/or techniques. (

This is a slightly dated but looks pretty good basic book on making bags, the kind of book you look for if you want to dip a toe into the bag-making pond.

Some of it is quite repeditive in shapes but it does explore a lot of variations and many of the adaptations would induce you to try out more ideas. (
