I was using my iPad and I didn't think the first one had "taken". <br />I used an old BDU pant leg, so I <i>could</i> have done something on the back... but didn't. Next time! :)<br />KZKThe Army of Fourhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12430214230146328389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2951351611948250076.post-85229258276098722262011-06-02T11:04:39.559+10:002011-06-02T11:04:39.559+10:00Hey there Jennifer!

I never thought of measuring it that way and using a 1/4 inch. then it fits perfectly. genius!Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08168868099447997633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2951351611948250076.post-66636505298551841192011-06-02T10:33:14.887+10:002011-06-02T10:33:14.887+10:00I am so happy you are giving it a go! It really is...I am so happy you are giving it a go! It really is a very simple bag...just about as simple as is possible to make and still be strong and durable. I have a trick for more pockets on the back, but since I was making a ACU bag it did not let me use them. You really are led by the uniform that you are using....but you know that! Oh and there are no rules! Or rules are meant to be broken, right? I can't wait to see your bag.the Campfollowerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16342276701416619400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2951351611948250076.post-55289736414753094482011-06-02T09:17:44.373+10:002011-06-02T09:17:44.373+10:00I'm about 85% done.

Don't ask how many rules I broke ... but it sure looks cool! :)<br />Your tute was very easy to follow! I'll post pix on my own blog in a day or two and will send you the link.
