New backpacks

Here are a few backpacks I have made recently.  I will be making patterns like these soon.
It's been a long week my son has had pneumonia and I was finally able to get to the studio today to clean up a little and do a little sewing.


I have been working on this pattern for a while now and have finally reached the point where it is the way I like it.  I have had a lot of input from my children, do this, add that. The backpacks have grommets on the bottom to hold the cord in place and I just love that. The top is pulled tight from both sides and the kids love the patterns. Hope you enjoy them.
