Thanks that’s ace. What’s the deal are you selling stuff or just a hobby for friends or...?
I’m pretty good at designing the stuff and deconstructing other designs, my sewing skills however are very basic!!
What I like about the filson bag is the little touches, I agree it looks pretty simple but I’d really like a good flight bag as I’m a nervous flyer hahaha
Thanks all! @GoatandTricycle I've attached the pattern I used for the tote. I first attach the webbing to the upper part, then attach the lower part and then top stitch to finish. Then sew together the sides, close the bottom and do a triangle fold thingy to give it some shape. I bias bind to edge at the end, but you could also fold it over and top stitch.
To me the Filson bag doesn't seem very complicated, but it's a lot of work with all of the pockets, especially if you want to put some pockets on the lining too. I'm planning on doing a weekend bag sometime soon, I reckon that if you'd scale that to be flatter and higher it'd be quite close to this.
