Cilifene! You are brill!
Screaming here! I JUST CUT MINE OUT TOO!!!! I love my TME Midi even more!!! If such a thing is possible.
I turned the bag inside out and really isolated the divider. Then I took VERY SHARP scissors and snipped slowly, following the seam. I didn't cut mine as close as Cilifene, for I was afraid of cutting open the seam. So it doesn't look as neat. But it still looks very neat. The lining, by the way, is separate from the bag, it is not attached. Then I turned the bag back to it's rightful shape, and voila!
I can understand having a divider in the Love Me, for instance, which is such a big bag. But for me, I don't like to rifle through a divider. So...thank you Cilifene for taking the plunge first and inspiring me! I was going to take it to a tailor or shoemaker to have it done. Wow!
