@christijay

“WOWWWW! This is all put together so well and the instructions are crystal-clear, it’s amazing! I’m usually easily confused by written instruction 🤪 so, the illustrations are so helpful.”

@sewsiyblog

“This bag has all the features that I look for in a travel bag. It's big enough to fit a laptop! I love all the metal and leather details. Even the leather is cut out and punched. It’s all thoughtfully done and just beautiful."

Lee

"I teach design classes and love thorough, well explained, detailed instructions. Both the pattern and the class made this build easy. The high quality kit pieces made this bag a dream to make."

@sierraburrel

“You end up with a bag that looks so professional. It's sleek AND it’s strong enough to carry all my things. It was also very empowering to make this bag.”

Brand new experience

I bought the Maywood Tote Pack a few years ago as a gift for myself and was too intimated to give it a try. I then forgot that I had it. A year passes.... Then I remembered and took it out and this time opened all the packaging. Overwhelmed and intimidated, I placed everything away. Forgot about it again. More time goes by... maybe a couple years. A few days ago, while admiring someone else's backpack while standing in line at the airport, I remembered my Maywood kit... again. Got home, took out the kit, read the instructions and decided to do it. Not intimidated at all. But ready to make mistakes and learn. It was much easier than I thought due to the explicit instructions and graphics. AND I used tools I've never heard of nor used before. It was such an amazing learning experience. I have a new favorite bag.
