On the mission to make the perfect iPad bag there may be no compromise.  Or something like that.  So instead of just adding leather to the ex-WWII haversack as it is (the easy way), I just had to make it narrower first (the hard way).

A lot of unpicking later, quick whip around with the scissors, and the bag is ready to be stitched back together again.

This bag is designed to replace my current bulky laptop and laptop bag that I currently use for business.  It will carry my iPad, iPhone, Livescribe pen and pad, business cards, and perhaps a few other sundry items.
