Thanks guys, I was thinking perhaps something along these lines. This is intended for motorcycle touring but the concept is the same:

But I'm open to ideas. I'll have to make a list of all the tools and parts that I'll want but definitely a couple multi-tools, spoke wrench, chain wrench, lube, spare tubes, patches, tire levers, hand wipes, along with a ziploc bag of essential spare parts. I'll need to go over the bike and trailer top to bottom to make sure I have every possible tool that I'll need.

Do you know any woman that likes to sew ? go to the fabric store and pick out the the fabric and color:thumb:

I picked one up a while back for my tourer, but that ship is stuck mid-overhaul for now, so I haven't had a chance to try it. I like the idea.

Agreed. How many tools to you need to carry, really? I've got a tool bag I can barely lift that contains all of the tools, and many of the spare parts, necessary to build a bike from the frame up. On tour? I leave most of that stuff at home! I carry enough tools to rescue myself from an inconvenience or mild disaster, but assume that if anything truly major happens I'll need to hitch a ride to a bike shop.

Agreed back at ya.

I just throw them in the bottom of the pannier. Why do you need a bag? I guess the ziplock idea, or a bread bag would be OK if you need something.
