U is for Unavailable

I’m getting heartily sick of not having a camera bag, so tonight I started researching the handmade options. A few weeks ago I was looking at getting one of the Crumpler bags, but they’re expensive, and they don’t make exactly what I want. I can’t find much handmade, and I’m not completely sold on the few that I can find.

So… I’m going to have to make my own.

I want something that is hardwearing, looks interesting (I’ll probably end up printing my own fabric), is waterproof, has good padding and has room for a spare lens, a few little accessories and the battery grip. If this works out, I might make a bigger version to hold all our gear. I’m going to need to borrow my friend’s overlocker, and I might think of acquiring a heavier duty sewing machine (I’ve wanted one for a while — I tend to push my current one a little too far, and sometimes it struggles).

Yay for summer projects!
