Okay, so school is still like a month and a half away, but I need a new backpack. So, I thought I could make one. The backpacks at Walmart and Target are good quality, but I don't like the designs. So, when I was at Hancock Fabric's with my mom, I got 3 yards of 2 different fabrics:
I think they go pretty well together. Then I remembered that I needed a pattern. So I decided on a style. Since I'm gonna be in the 7th Grade, I'll need a good-sized bag that's strong and long lasting.
Strong + Big + Long Lasting = Messenger Bag
So that's what I decided on. So today I finally started looking for a pattern. What do you think of this one?
I think that the chicken-ish fabric should be on the outside with the other fabric that I have no idea what it is called on the inside. Hopefully I can get all this done and ready for school!
I love the chicken fabric! Nice pattern, too. So much more interesting than one from Walmart; yours will be one of a kind :)
ReplyDeleteI'd call that other fabric sort of a houndstooth check. Sort of.
ReplyDeleteI'll look forward to seeing your new messenger bag at the guild meeting!
