Here are a couple of the framebags I've made in the past year.  Both bags are made entirely out of recycled material: old Therma-rest sleeping pad material salvaged from a local outdoor shop that was tossing them out, zippers taken from old raingear that had seen better days.  I'm not sure what the material used in sleeping pads actually is but I can say that the orange bag has about 800kms on it with no wear issues at all and the grey one is in constant use with the bike being the daily commuter.  I've been caught in nasty rainstorms and the bags haven't been penetrated by water.  Lucky considering I didn't do anything to waterproof them.

Orange one is on a L Santa Cruz Highball, The seatbag is a holster I made for a modified drybag and it works pretty well at holding a crap ton of food.

The grey is on an XL Long Haul Trucker.  The bag has upper/lower sections separated entirely with a map pocket on the left hand side.  For reference, the shoe in the pic is a size 11, that bag is gargantuan.

My sewing technique needs some work or, as likely, I need a better machine than the 40 year old one I'm using.

Those look great! What sewing machine are you using? Sometimes the older ones are better...

I really prefer this Aduro Sport Bike Frame Bag. I recommend you try it because it can carry your wallet, mobile phone, charger, bike pump, and other bike accessories conveniently. The bag has a very simple triangle design that covers half of the frame. It is made of strong polyester material. It is both water and weather resistant to protect the items inside. It has three adjustable velcro for easy storage. With its strong and stable structure, my belongings will always be safely tucked inside the pack while I enjoy biking on the road.
