You just need to have a basic knowledge of sewing and that's it!

(note: I made the bicycle embroidery on my Singer Futura Embroidery Machine.I can custom make you if you want one =) )

THINGS YOU NEED:
1/2 yard fabric
2 pieces of velcro
And basic sewing supplies

Place the straps to the back of the bag and sew them.

(You can do this step right in the beginning, before sewing the bag together)

The best thing about using a striped fabric is that you can use the stripes as guidelines.
