craftgrrlHello all,
First off I'd like to say hi, because I'm posting here for the first time (been lurking for quite a while though). Second, I have a little question.
I want to make my boyfriend of 3 years a messenger bag for Christmas. He's a cinematographer so he's always carrying around his backpack and his camera bag, and I'd like to condense it for him so that he can fit his camera in with his books. In addition I want to make pockets for his palm pilot, mini-DV tapes, etc. I have quite a bit of sewing experience, but I wanted to get some ideas as far as materials go, and also on how to make the stitching super-strong (since the bag will be heavy). Any tips?
