BACKPACK PROJECT PROTOTYPE

Finished! Finally! There were some mistakes on the cutting information on the pattern--which I discovered after cutting the lining. Fortunately, we have lots of lining fabric. I did note a couple of other things on the pattern that weren't exactly clear but it worked out. (There is a tiny line on the pattern that says to check the website in case there are mistakes on the pattern......of course, I checked it...after the fact.) I put two pockets in the lining--why not? The most nerve wracking part, for me, was putting the grommets in for the straps. You have to mark and cut the hole to fit the grommet and it was not fun. I was afraid I was going to mess up the final step after all that work but--yippee--it worked.
