๐Ÿš€ DIY Travel Bag with Trolley Sleeve | How to make a Carry On Underseat Luggage

Today, I made a convenient and practical large-sized travel bag.
This Bag has a full wraparound zip opening to give easy access to the spacious main compartment. And its trolley sleeve perfectly secures to any away suitcase. With a 15โ€ณ laptop pocket, we also love it as a daily work bag or gym bag.
Letโ€™s make it with Sewingtimes.

The finished measurements of this bag are approximately 15โ…žโ€ณ(40ใŽ) W ร— 9โ…žโ€ณ(25ใŽ) H ร— 7โ…›โ€ณ(18ใŽ) D.
