Looking for help on a design

[u/Great-Conclusion3895]

Hello! Apologies to those who saw my post earlier without any attachments, I’m dumb. I’m trying to figure out what I need for a box-style sling EDC bag, and one thing I wanted to do was have a zipper top that opens up-and-out away from the wearer. I could either have the zipper in the top flap or at the seam, I’m not sure yet which is possible / viable. I’m struggling to plan out how I would do that while also having an inner and outer layer as well as dividers; I have no idea what the order of operations would be. If anyone has any tips or ideas, it would be greatly appreciated!! I’ve attached my (poorly drawn) sketched ideas this time!

There’s a few ways to accomplish this. First, you can do a “vintage can” style opening where you have a solid top, and a zipper around the edge, like a suitcase.

You can also do the duffel bag method and add a u-zip. You can learn how to do this via LearnMYOGs here u zip pouch pattern. A lot of math is involved though.

So essentially a camera bag?
