An end and a beginning

It's the end of summer fun.


And the beginning of a new school year, which means a new one of these.

Same pattern I used for this bag

Which gets requested less than 24 hours before the school bell goes.

Got to be a laminate inside for ease of wipe clean
But isn't that what being 'A Mum-With-A-Sewing-Machine' is all about?

  4. Great bag, big enough for lots of books, sturdy handles .... Just what they need! Wish mine would see the merits of a bag like,this over a shop bought one that I have to try and repair broken handles. Have a peaceful return to school :)

  5. Great bag - isn't it funny that kids are always happy to let you sew away when it's for them ;-)

  9. How wonderful that your child likes to carry things you've made!

    I've been wanting to make one of those sling style backpacks and I offered to make one for my 17 year old daughter whose current sling backpack is in bad shape. She gave me a grave and level look. Off to the mall we went :)
