Here's a tutorial for sewing a compression sack I made a while back - I hope it might be useful for anybody trying to make their own.

Awesome!

Wait this means I have to add silnylon to my stash, doesn’t it?

Hah, actually the scalloped end-pieces where the tensioners go is one of my favorite ways to use up interesting scraps. No idea where I got that skull pattern cordura style material but I wish i had more of it now!

I made these 4-5 years ago and they still get frequent use. I went a bit overboard and made too many so I have about 8 of them in my closet keeping my bulk polyfill to a reasonable volume.
