How to attach a rucksack strap back to the bag?

Posted at: 2014-07-17 
I recently bought a rucksack that i loved however after a few weeks one strap fell off (the stitching between the strap and bag at the top had torn) - I was wondering how to attach the strap bag effectively? It looks fixable however I'm not sure wether sewing or glue is the answer, if sewing how would I do this/what technique?I recently bought a rucksack that i loved however after a few weeks one strap fell off (the stitching between the strap and bag at the top had torn) - I was wondering how to attach the strap bag effectively?

If the end of the strap came out of the seam, I would insert the strap end back in the seam and resew it, using a similar but smaller stitch length. I'd then reinforce the seam by using a wide strip of twill tape, bent around the seam as if you were using double fold bias binding, and sew through the seam area again.
