FlapHappy Backpack free sewing pattern

Here’s another free bag pattern and tutorial from this most generous and talented pattern designer.

The Flaphappy Backpack is sized to be perfect as a handbag alternative or as a child’s backpack and has the following features:

• It has pleated sides
• It’s fully lined inside
• It’s padded and has adjustable straps to fit just right
• It’s nice and wide at the bottom, but the top easily stays closed.

The name comes from the fold-over flap at the top, which makes it easy to open & close, and has its own built-in pocket.

What you will need to make the FlapHappy Backpack:-

• Three 1/2 yards of cotton,
• 1/2 yard of fusible fleece,
• A package of double fold bias tape,
• Two adjustable sliders,
• Basic sewing supplies,
• A sewing machine.
