Sewing Help

[rfizzle]

the canvas one looks pretty good. the hardest part of any of this is....Where to start and what order to go in. If we only knew that we would be pros.

I see alot of canvas ones for sale because certain people dont like the chemicals used in the cordura (for children)

as I said before, if I can be of any help, let me know.

Thanks man, yeah it the order thing still a steep learning curve.

Here is Version 2.0:




I have reached the limit of my machine for sure. A couple layers of cordura and a layer of webbing is not my $50 machine's friend.

I still haven't added straps, as I was finishing up I was liking the way the pack was turning out so I didn't want to cheap out on the straps (like the 2" webbing ones on the canvas 1.0). I left some D-rings exposed on the four corners so I can add straps at some point.

I used elastic on the sides of the pack body to help the lid fit over. I also added some webbing loops so I could do shock cord on the one side, I attempted a water bottle pocket as well. I added an internal pocket on the back so I could add a frame sheet (piece of plexiglass). My MOLLE came out pretty decent I thought, I've improved but like I said this was the limit of my machine. I like that it came out pretty much how I pictured it in my head (and sketch), I really have no need for any packs but it was fun to design and make my own.
