Jo helps you to make the Sedron backpack and explains all the options for making this bag.
It's sized to fit a standard paper binder and a medium size laptop. Instructions are included for an interior bottle pocket, exterior and interior zip pockets and a laptop strap. The bag doesn't include padding for a laptop, but the strap is designed to hold a laptop that's within a protective sleeve. The bag also features a small grab handle that's built into the straps. This grab handle is designed to fit 2 or 3 fingers and is suitable for grabbing the bag, but not designed for hanging or holding it.
We've rated it as intermediate. It's a massive bag, which takes some time to construct.

Interior zip pocket
