Now that you have your pattern pieces, it's time to place them on the fabric and cut. There are two choices. For just one bag, use fabric cut: 29" of outer fabric.
Lay the fabric out flat so there is no fold. Then lay the pattern pieces out like this (in the space between the strap piece and the body piece, put enough distance so you can fit 4 staps. I didn't for the picture because it made it too big to get all in one shot):
Cut one body and one pocket piece. For the straps, you'll need 4 pieces, so use the left over fabric and get all 4 of your straps.
For making 2 bags, use the fabric cut: 33" of outer fabric.
Fold your fabric matching selvages. Here is your layout:
Sinice the pieces are on the folded fabric, they'll cut out:
2 body
2 pockets
Now, move the strap pattern around so you get *8* strap pieces.
Take your 26" of inner fabric and lay out just your body piece. Cut one if you're doing just one bag, and two if your doing two bags.
Now, you have all your cut pieces. I'll do another big post once I get all the next step sewn. To be continued......
