Another tip. Leave your thread to the back for those tight spots. Run a stitch or two by hand to get started and then use the threads as a pull cord to get the first bit of fabric through the feed dogs. Once you have enough stitches, you should then be able to grab the fabric and continue as normal. Most of the loose ends will be enclosed by other seams. Personally, I sew a french seam down the side and across the bottom. Don't forget the loop "handle" on the bottom so that you can hold the bag when you pull the stuff out.
Here is a Google Docs spreadsheet to calculate the size piece of fabric to cut for a particular size stuff sack
