Every man likes a pretty girl with him at a skeleton dance.
I need help.

I want to build my own backpack. I have an idea of what I want, essentially a basic box 17"x13"x4" with a drawstring top, flip over top with velcro fasteners, and seat belt material for the strips. I was thinking canvas or some heavy duty cotton as an exterior fabric, with a liner of a softer fabric.

Now the twist.

I have never sewed in my life. I can understand the basic concepts behind what I want to create.

IE create exterior of bag inside out, same with the lining. When adding the padding I place that in between my my exterior and interior, attach straps, sew everything up.

How do I sew the lining (inside of the bag) to the exterior of the bag? What would be the best way to attach the straps to the bag?
