Conclusion
Overall, I really enjoyed the whole process of sketching, prototyping, drafting pattern, and sewing my own design! The order of operations for how the bag is sewn together gave me a lot of trouble, so there was a lot of seam ripping involved.

ADDITIONS
Because it was mandatory to use felt, I would like to remake this in nylon. I would also add side pockets and another interior pocket. Including an attachment piece between backpack and lunchbox to secure it.
