Drawstring backpack

The other day I made a lined drawstring backpack for my son. He wanted something more lightweight than his usual backpack, and it's nice to have options.


He picked out the fabric. 


Summersville Alphabetty on the outside.


Flock Mod Trees for the lining.


And he really likes it. As we were out and about yesterday, he was pointing out all the similar packs he saw, and noting that none of them compared very favorably to his own.

  7. That is so cute, Dan. I'm going to make one for my daughter. Or maybe I'll help her make her own. That will be a good summer project, I think.
