September Challenge: Day 9

Day 9 and I am still chugging away. This mini backpack is one of 7 I cut today. 3 or 4 of them are slated for my niece's birthday party. I hope 9 year olds don't read blogs...if so, Anna, change the tab - look away :)

She is having her birthday party Friday night - a sleepover. A camping out sleepover. Her mom was thinking of getting all the girls some camping gear goodie bags...so I offered up the bag part of the equation. I thought small backpacks would be a great idea. And fun! Each one is a different fabric. They are simple, canvas bags that are not interfaced. I have put a drawstring closure on them and a weighted flap. I skipped the snap idea so they could stuff them without having to worry about things fitting.



So, guess what tomorrow's craft will be :P More bags. I will try to do something different too though...but it will be something smallish.

...go check out Peacocks and Dragonflies OADCC...she got me into this :P

How much would you charge if you made one of these to sell? And would you be up to making one to trade? :P
