I believe the side was 19 sqft. I had to cut around some imperfections and still had lots of left over (4 sqft easily). Quote

Members Jamespio Posted June 2, 2017 Members Report Posted June 2, 2017 that is a beautiful piece of luggage. Your customer should be enormously proud to carry that. Quote
Members Parzival Posted June 7, 2017 Members Report Posted June 7, 2017 That is gorgeous! I'd like to eventually make a laptop bag for myself that looks as nice as this. Quote

Members geargarcon Posted June 7, 2017 Members Report Posted June 7, 2017 Beautiful bag! Really well done. Is that a cotton canvas lining? It looks like you pre-sewed it? Can I ask how you attached it? Quote
Members Jetdoctorbox Posted June 7, 2017 Members Report Posted June 7, 2017 Beautiful Bag!!! I must learn how to do that some day. Fantastic work!!! Quote

Yes its cotton canvas. its essentially a big inside the bag. to attach it i simply turn the edge all the way around to hide the "rough edge" and stitch it to the bag all the way around the opening.That method does't always work for every bag but it suits this "bucket" style bag 20 hours ago, Jetdoctorbox said: Beautiful Bag!!!

Members eg1968 Posted June 8, 2017 Members Report Posted June 8, 2017 Any pics of the interior without the liner installed? Quote

Members Windrider30 Posted June 19, 2017 Members Report Posted June 19, 2017 Forgot to ask did you use a frame to get the top to look like that? I am sitting on the fence about making a doctor style bag and I haven't used a frame before so was wondering how hard it would be. Quote

I'm relying on certain parts of the bag being double thick to maintain the structure. The 'panels' at the zipper, in this case, are double thick. I've found that if you design the bag correctly, with careful consideration, you'll never need a 'frame'. Unless you're working with dense veg tan/bridle, Quote
