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

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.

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

great job Toogie. do you use that In-R-form stuff to make it stand up so nicely? I am yet to try it myself, but would like to.

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

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

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

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
