- Sew it yourself! This Backpack Kit is a great project for someone just starting out with sewing and to practice their skills. In fact, it’s our most beginner-friendly project kit. The fabric comes pre-plotted so all you have to do is cut out the pieces and assemble the bag - no figuring out measurements or calculations! The backpack is made with Cordura® - a rugged and heavy-duty bag fabric. The backpack features a front pocket, two side pockets.

This is exactly what I was looking for! Other DIY Sewing projects are for women, I mean sewing can be a man's hobby too.
Glad you liked it.
Well, sewing is for anyone no matter what you’re making. There’s no “sewing projects for women” or “sewing projects for men.” They’re just sewing projects. lol
@Opawesum your sewing some facts into the comment section! Really stitched up that comment. 😅I'll see myself out
I made this backpack today. Sewed on a 1950’s vintage Singer 111w155. Turning the straps right side out was the most difficult part of the project. Thanks for the excellent instructions!!
Great video. The pros is that it shows that with the right equipment and materials anyone can create this backpack.
The cons: The overuse of the double sided tape will cause problems for new and intermediate sewers alike. One layer of double sided tape can be problematic, but at times, in this video, there was layers upon layers of double sided tape used. Also there were seams numbers announced that wasn’t being sewn. The seam allowance while sewing the large front pocket on was announced as 1/8 but it was obvious that was 1/4 if not larger. This may not seem important but seam allowance are very very important. ❤
You're doing it f.... GREAT. AWSOME TUTORIAL. Thank you so much.
Thanks for your clear and precise Tutorial. Now my Straps are pretty neat and Front Pocket is sooo much easier to attach. Love This. Bless You.
Thanks!!!!
Thnx for this beautiful video...jst love ur method...👍
I love you add clip options . I just see somebody make how bags are made in Asia...why somebody will buy one make these if have great bran just under them noses. Love you guys ...I recommend your channel in sewing community who do bags 🎒. Ppl are so happy when can do leather and heavy duty materials. I just moved to my new home and first think what I think 🤔 I have your video with roman blinds...strait away make me happy 😊
Thank you! It is quite easy to understand. I am trying to make a backpack now and your video helps me much. Thank you
Love your videos. Very cool that the pattern is plotted right on the fabric!
😎 Awesome. So nice to have something that you have made yourself
Thanks for the tutorial
🤯 Awesome video. Thank you!
Beautiful easy to use
I was so amazed how much effort is required to make one bag!
An easier way to turn the fabric inside out for pieces 8 and 9 (time: 18:58) use PVC pipe, hold onto ends and slowly pull down. It won't be as cumbersome.
If only all tutorials were this good.
Thank you very much your kindly explain and show demo. I learn lots good technicns Thanks
Glad you liked it!
15:18 I love trangles.
Excelente video! Very well explained and easy to follow.
Glad it was helpful!
Cool & very awesome video , sew sweet ❤
Thank you!
Exelente trabajo saludos..
awesome!
thanks a lot!
Well demonstrated
Good work
using a small rod or even a broom stick makes turning a project like that super easy
Design my own backpack, but I still watch this to learn one or two tricks😂
Ништяк👍
Подробно снято,попробую повторить зимними вечерами,спасибо.
Наслаждайтесь изготовлением рюкзака этой зимой. Спасибо за просмотр!
@@SailriteDIY ок,будем ждать сериал))
Thanks ...❤
What would you bind the edge of the seams with?
I find this video very helpful
Glad you like it.
Sometimes double sided tape is helpful and sometimes it just gets in the way! Not criticizing just commenting. 😊 I enjoy your videos! I'm saving up for a Fabricator........can't wait!
Your comment is valid and true. For instance if I am making a cushion cover I would not to use seamstick (double sided tape). However, if I were trying to line up a pattern on a cushion when sewing my boxing to the plate I would use the double sided tape as an aid and try to keep it away from my stitch, so it does not show up when the cushion is turned right side out. Thanks for you comment!
You will love the Sailrite® Fabricator Sewing Machine!!!!
Clipping the curves can help with matching seams
Great sewing pattern and fabric, I can't wait to make this. I was wondering is the camo is OCP? If so could i get the pattern pieces adjusted so it is oriented correctly? OCP and even the old multicam was meant to be horizontal. The pack the young man had on had the pattern 90 degrees off, vertical. I know it's no big deal to most civilians. But military and ex-military families may like the same orientation as the uniforms. Thanks
Fantastic 👍
Would you mind if I took a pattron?
Very nice, thank you. Give us measurement please
Absolute beginner on your LS1, At 7:10 dont know why I cant line up other half of pocket to sew I tried everything, should I cut relief notches or something ? 😁🙁
When you sew or match up rounded edges, relief cuts are a good idea, they will make it easier for the fabric to take the curve. If it is off a slight bit it will not matter much in the end results.
Hello, what kind of double sided tape is that? Thanks
It is called: Seamstick 1/4" Basting Tape for Canvas & Upholstery. Here is a link: www.sailrite.com/Seamstick-1-4-Basting-Tape-for-Canvas-Upholstery-36-Yards
Super nice !! It will be awesome if you could make bike panniers and bikepacking !! Thank you very much !!
Q if i wanted to stitch two bits of wedding not overlaped next to each other to make 1 longer peace
is it better to have square ends or different shape the join like two triangles
I am not sure that sewing webbing together without overlapping them would be very strong. If you just butt them up together with a square or 45 degree edge and stitch, you are only depending on the sewing threads to take the weight.
👍👏👏👏❤
Do you sell this pattern? wanted to choose my own fabric but luv this style
Sorry, we do not. You can use the plotted fabric as a pattern for your fabric, but that would require you to buy the kit. Again, sorry!
Do you by chance sell just the pattern for personal use? I like the design but would like to modify it to suit my tastes.
Buy the kit and when you cut out your pattern you can use them as a pattern or make more patterns from them. This will allow you to make design changes and this exact backpack multiple times.
Preciosa
how do you get the pattern without buying the kit?
How
You can't, in another comment the creators of the video answer that.
How does one buy the toolkit.?
Could you use a different zipper on this backpack
Yes, you can use a different zipper if you like.
What is the printer model used to draw the pattern?
ProSail plotter.
I wanna make on for my church class I go to on Wednesdays for me
@43:20 you didn’t mention which way the banding should face. This is pretty important and getting it wrong is a mistake you likely won’t discover until you turn the bag right side out. Otherwise good video.
How sturdy is that pack? I want to get into this but I can't afford a good sewing machine at the moment.
The pack is quite sturdy and can withstand heavy use. Someday you will own a sewing machine, hopefully.
comment: in making the padded straps. There has to be a right and left so the curve on the foam matches the curve on pattern number 5 while maintaining the fact that the buckles covering the slit remain in the outside. It seems possible if one did not notice this as the foam was being pulled into the straps, one could make two identical straps instead of a left and right. I may not fully see the options here but in looking ahead, I laid out one pulled strap on pattern 5 and made sure the next strap, would end up with the correct curve in the correct place.
Esa maquina de doble arrastre no es comun. Yo tengo una typical que es fuerte pero no tiene el pie ni la aguja de ese tamaño. Es muy buena pero no se donde se consigue una maquina asi. La cinta para pegar con esa fuerza tampocp la vi en mi pais. Gracias por el video!

Do u have pattern?
Any chance to have the template?
Buy the kit and when you cut out your patterns you can use them as a pattern or make more patterns from them.
This will allow you to make design changes and this exact backpack multiple times.
Hola, donde puedo obtener los moldes?
Thank you for your good education.please teach pattern drawing.
Your welcome! The pattern is plotted directly on the fabric in the kit.
Already look very complicated, wondering how those modern backpack like AER or PeakDesign are made.
They are
Does this fabric fray?
Cordura 1000D has a urethane backing which helps to eliminate fraying under normal use.
Elizabeth Dettrey you can also melt the edge with a lighter to insure it won’t fray. The backing makes it less prone to but melting the edge pretty much eliminates fraying.
Greet work! May I get the pattern for free?
I would like buy a machine. What kind of thread are you using ?
We used Coats Extra Strong Nylon Upholstery Thread to sew this backpack. www.sailrite.com/search?keywords=Coats%20Extra%20Strong%20Nylon%20Upholstery%20Thre
@@SailriteDIY Could use use kevlar thread for this with your LS-1? Thanks
@@meh9682 We don't sell Kevlar Sewing Thread, so unfortunately we do not know how it will sew on a Sailrite Ultrafeed Sewing Machine, since it has not been tested. Sorry!
What foot is that?
That is a compound walking foot on the Sailrite® Fabricator® Sewing Machine found here: www.sailrite.com/Sewing-Machines/Industrial-Sewing-Machines/Sailrite-Fabricator-Sewing-Machine
Can we get measurements of the patterns
Sorry, the pattern is plotted on the fabric only.
احسنت ....

at 6:10 they change the fabric where the basting tape goes, sneaky.....from basting a curved edge to basting the opposite fabric that has a straight edge. at 7.05 you can see the basting tape on the other piece of fabric......
Because of the tight curve the basting tape will not hold as well, even if you apply it to both surfaces, as we tried to do and it still did not hold. So, for this step we showed using wonder clips.
@@SailriteDIY almost done with my backpack, fun project!
@@pmgear Excellent!
There's a rumor that every time a sewing kit is sold, that the stock price of the basting tape company jumps.
Good morning Greetings from Ecuador. Could you help me with the name of the machine or what is the name of the machine that marks the patterns on the fabric that comes out in the first 43 seconds of the video. Please help me with the name of the machine. Thank you
The plotter is called "ProSail" www.prosailcutter.com/
patterns are available?
The pattern is plotted right on the fabric. If you want to make multiple, just use the fabric which has the pattern on it as the pattern for others.
@@SailriteDIY I understand, I was only interested in the possibility of obtaining the pattern in some kind of digital format.
@@FreddyD.Rosario Oh, sorry we don't have that available as a digital form.
Please give measurements
Sorry, this kit has panel cuts plotted on the fabric only.
I want to take pieces off one backpack and attach it to another. I’m searching for a video that shows this
We do not have any videos that show removing portions of a bag and moving it to another.
Make ip a shield po backpack multi use i just avoid dogs need it while walking
Haha, a shield po backpack? Now that's a unique way to avoid dogs! But hey, whatever works, right?
