Great pattern

I made the lined version but without the quilting step.  The fabrics were all scraps so doesn’t exactly look shop-bought, but despite that the finish is very neat, especially the bound seams and strap hardwear attachments.

This is a really useful bag, four large pockets and a specious main compartment.  It would be easy to add even more pockets if you wanted to, or change the size of some of them as well.

Clear instructions and pattern pieces, despite there being quite a few of them.
