Trace or photocopy the pattern piece(s) onto a separate sheet of paper. If printing or copying template(s), print at 100% or actual size.

Cute Back Pack 😍

My first backpack was made for my girlfriend from Hawaii who plays pickleball 🌺. It turned out so cute with a green Fern print for the main fabric and hula dance ladies for lining fabric. This bag was quick to make. So I'm making one for my neices birthday this month and will combine a purple faux leather with some fabric for the main outer bag. 🥰

Thank you for the review-we are so glad that it turned out great! Excited to see your next one in purple. Please join our Sallie Tomato Patterns and Hardware Group on Facebook to post your makes.
