My cooper backpack (variation 2) from Colette Patterns made of canvas (i think?) and synthetic leather.
I'm currently visiting my grandma in Taiwan and had fun hunting down the hardware and using her old iron, machine, and mallet to make this bag. I also loved not having to make a muslin for fit! Hooray!
An easy make, but take note if you are not using a flat slider - the instructions don't account for it. My slider had an obvious right/wrong side and I had to do a bit of guessing and playing around so that the slider would face the correct side. I also found it difficult to use an awl to create holes for the rivets. It was much easier to use a tiny punch and punch out the spots instead. The rivets slid in easily and I didn't have to fight to get them in. I wish this bag had some zippers, especially for the main part, but it still holds things nicely. It's just me who is paranoid about pickpockets or things falling out accidentally. I do love all the pockets though as there are a total of 8 (!). That's a lot, and so this bag holds my keys, wallet, umbrella, phone, scarf, sweater, and chap stick perfectly. I also felt so stylish wearing this when compared to all the "regular looking" backpacks out there. Overall I am very pleased with my first bag make.
I have more photos and wrote more in my blog here: cathywu.com/journal/kalali/2013/12/12/cooper-backpack-bag/
Well this is pretty much everything I'm bringing to Europe. And I'm going to try and jam it all into my backpack. This'll be interesting.
With the bottom folded to the mark, and the flap folded down over that, it's easy to place the harness.

A rare portrait. The topic of how to carry your camera gear while backpacking is one of endless discussion among photographers... what to take and where to put it. I've chosen to go with the "Crumpler" photo bag which grants quick and easy access to my camera and two lenses. It can get a bit tiring on longer days, but is still worth it.
I was supposed to catch my first flight today ( going to Frankfurt ) and continue by flying to Toronto. But due to bad weather the flight got cancelled and the same with the replacement flight. Long story short - I am still in Austria and got a direct connection to Toronto tomorrow morning. At least all of that gave me a chance to post this picture of the gear that I put into my backpack... ;) Besides the equipment shown in the picture I guess the 1st gen Surface Pro and the Feisol CT-3401 are also worth to be mentioned. Looking forward to finally get going tomorrow!
