And I'm pretty sure I'm preaching to the choir, but expect a learning curve. My wife is a skilled [STRIKE]sewer[/STRIKE] seamstress and when she decided to make a custom backpack for herself there were several false starts along the way. Strap fit as it related to how the pack hung on the back seemed to be a particularly sticky spot. When she finally got everything to her liking, though, she loves it. She said none of the commercial packs she had had were ever exactly what she wanted. Good luck.
