tboyce Report post Posted March 11, 2015 Perfect usually I have to approximate dimensions by seeing something relative (like the distance of the average female forearm is 10 ")This will me easier than I thought I'll post something this afternoon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

opus56 Report post Posted March 12, 2015 many thanks to tboyce (for all your pattern work) & opus56 (very nice and simple design - very cool!!!) Thanks everyone...it's my pleasure. tboyce did all the hard work! Here are a couple of shots of a small 6" x 4" x 1" bag I did as a proof of concept. No adjustable strap nor did I sew on the front flap....it was just all cut as one piece. If people are interested in this smaller bag, I'll get template info to tboyce and he could whip up another pattern for everyone. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
