Did you turn the blue on that buckle black with that RIT dye method? Looks great!
The patterns I received don't account for the center leather strip that goes around the bottom, the expanding gussets/vents in the light fabric, or the second layer of the light fabric on the front panel as far as I can tell (there's the very front panel and then what I presume is a similar but taller light panel that goes behind the trapezoid shapes and into the pocket) as far as I can tell. Am I missing something?
Even having the oval grommets and the buckle already, I'd be interested in whatever hardware kits you offer! I'd love to see a kit for the leather straps if you've been considering it, as that edge stitching is so difficult to do cleanly.
Nope, just used one of these:

Works like a charm!
I don't have templates for those pieces, just the basic shape of the bag. I pretty much eye-balled everything else. The strip of leather I used around the edge is about 2.25" wide if that helps.
Not sure if I'll offer the leather strips. Agreed on the difficulty of getting the edge stitching straight.
Love the sharpie technique! I'll do the same. For the vents, did you basically cut slits into the shape of your "light material" template? With hindsight, do you think I should expand that edge at all to accommodate them?
Thanks again,
