Promise Ring Backpack sewing pattern

Sometimes you want to be casual and handsfree but still, look smart. Backpacks can have too much of a casual look, can be overly big and bulky, too much going on, too many pockets – it can be much more than you need and doesn’t always feel pretty or feminine. The Promise Ring Backpack by Sew Sweetness is a beautiful compromise between functional and pretty, without being overly large.

The backpack features the following:-

• Solid accents to make your feature fabric pop!
• The straps are adjustable and clipped to the sides of the backpack.
• A flap with a magnetic snap closure keeps your belongings safe.
• There is a zippered pocket in the lining to store your cell phone.

The designer says “I designed this as a small purse-style backpack that would allow you to be out and about this summer while being hands-free, but it also makes an adorable child’s backpack!”
