This is my first attempt so, I made this haversack for my 10yr old son and he just loves it! You close the flap using a rubber band. That way, if it breaks or falls off, you just replace it with another.

Looks like something from the Revolutionary War era. I like it. Is it made of some type of canvas?

Thanks everyone. It is made of a lightweight canvas that I bought at our local fabric store. I got all materials from the same store and bought extra to make one for myself.
I plan on making mine a little more extravagant but, needed to make a basic one first to get the feel of my creativity. My son has already filled it with a Pokemon book, Nintendo DS, games and his pocket knife. At least he got one outdoor tool in it!

A "man bag" is very nice to have.
You did a nice job.

You are a craftsman. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Pepper, just trying to keep it traditional. I have some blue ticking to sew as inside pockets when I make mine.

Great job!
It really looks good and should be very handy.
Thanks for sharing!
God bless,Mudd
PS: The only negative thoughts for me is that your post reminds me that I've been looking for mine for a couple of months and it still hasn't shown up yet...lol

I'm in the middle of making mine now. I put a red ticking material inside as a liner and blue ticking for the pocket and flap. It will be a little better than the one above. I find that this kind of thing is fun to make. My wife is coaching on the sewing machine use!

When your done, you can waterproof it with bees wax and some low heat. Just be careful around a campfire. It works great I have carried a haversack in the woods for years. Great way to carry everything you need. Add a wool blanket and your set for a night or a week out.

Bowhunting is a passion, not an obsession. Its just hard for my wife to tell the difference sometimes.
