that was fucking torture. so much to think about, i've left a few features off the bag as i just couldn't handle it any longer. was going to have many internal pockets and a lock pocket on the outside.
very happy with it though. the size is great, it works, it fits perfectly, the load is even, the padding is nice. hopefully my next one will be a lot neater.
i began to feel the limits of the machine though, not the power, more the maneuverability of the bag in and around the needle. having the machine sunk to the same level as your work surface would make it a lot easier to sew straight in certain areas, i think.

now i can spend this week making wallets and tool pouches from the scrap vinyl and cordura. might get bored of this colour scheme though.
Right, finished.
