I'm just wondering if I can have some tips or start an informational email exchange with other bag makers. Just for fun, I've started making some stuff.
So far, I've made a few, but would like to continue with small handlebar bags, boxy randonneur style stuff, wedge seat bags, larger carradice style seat bags, backpacks, courier bags, panniers, travel bags for S and S coupler bikes. It's all just for fun, for family and friends, I'm still working on my stitching and design. I'm working with 24oz and 18oz cotton duck, cotton and synthetic trim, brass closures, leather, and some lining for the insides of the bags. I use a 1902 Singer 29-2 treadle foot leather patching machine for the very thick fabrics.and a 1968 Singer 347 home machine for the standard materials. I'm trying to go the traditional frenchy style. Thanks, Ely in SF -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
