Developing an ALICE pack? Maybe this will help. You will need basic pattern and bag construction theory to use it. File is disabled after 50 downloads. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/ravnvqxbjdwrrg26xxd3f/container-for-ALICE-frames-v1.2.pdf?rlkey=37b22tpgn0nfv4x3auxd0yf9p&st=67b5cn3n&dl=0        |

In the late 1900s/early 00s It was fatiguing reading, "starving artist," posts about gate keeping and no free patterns. It's fun to put stuff out there and see who speaks the language. It's even easier than a pouch. It's simply scaled up GP pouch CAD but it's way easier to sew since you can get your hands in there. |

And yea, I get it's easier than a pouch, I really do agree - but the SIZE of it is daunting to people who are new to sewing. It LOOKS harder and it makes it mentally harder for them as someone just starting. They look at it and are 'I dunno if I can do that'. But hand them a simple, I dunno, velcro M4 magazine pouch and it SEEMS easier to them. It gives them confidence. |
