I wanted to make another little shirt for Gus today, but a lady called wanting this toddler backpack, for Friday. She has given me ample time, so I felt bad because I didn't have it made, because honestly I forgot what size I cut it. You know my first one came about by accident.


Thank goodness for Cute. I looked back at my Sewing projects and found my post about these bags. I remembered a Cutie asked me what size I cut it, so when I researched the comments, I found the size! whew! Cute saved me! Thanks to Cuties with questions too!
I made it with 2 fat quarters and lined with Baby Dry. Hope you like it!-Toogie

Toogie, what a fantastic job you have done with this back pack, very classy material for a little girl. I am sure she will be thrilled with this result. Sandra.

I loved the fabric quarters, from Walmart, when I saw them. I will find out today how she likes it, but the text I sent in her reply she said she did. Thanks-Toogie

Lillian, I sometimes keep 4x6 cards for jotting down measurements or info, when I make something different. I thought after the accidental cut, when I made the next ones on purpose, I jotted it down. Evidently not!-lol-Good to see you and thanks-Toogie

I'm glad you like what I do, but there is so much more that I can't do, you give me far too much credit. I do thank you and I'm glad you like my work.-Toogie

No, I've not tried it. I ironed Pellon 809 stabilizer to the pink and straps. I lined it, as I said with the baby dry, which is a rubberized waterproof fabric. Thanks and if you wanna know anything else, just ask.-Toogie

Be sure you charge enough! This looks like quite a lot of work. Sooo cute.

It's nothing hard, just straps and a box, but it is time consuming. I spent my whole afternoon making it. Thanks for looking-Toogie

Thank you Chris. I didn't really want to make anymore of these too time consuming, but this lady is a regular and she also used to work with Avery at school, so............I sent her a text/photo when I finished and she loved it. She said she'd pick up tomorrow, instead of Friday if that was okay, so she must like it.
