Members Fatolbaldguy Posted April 15, 2013 Members Report Posted April 15, 2013 While looking for project ideas I saw a picture of a canvass messenger bag with a leather strap, leather belt style latches and leather reinforced corners. It looks very Indiana Jones esk. I have a sewing machine that can do the canvass and the leather I can do by hand as always. How would all you old salts go about recreating a pattern for something like this? Thanks. Quote

dirtclod Posted April 15, 2013 Report Posted April 15, 2013 Get some poster board make a center line and measure off of that to what ever size you want. Then make patterns for the bottom and corner leather pieces of poster board tape every thing together with latches and hardware and see how things fit. If ever thing looks good cut your canvas and leather. Quote
