Back to school!

I'm back.

Seven months without writing a word... it was a really hard and full period, with no time to take photos of my projects and to write something, but in the meanwhile I sewed some dresses for my little C., something for me and some special projects.

But today F. was back to school.
So I want to restart this blog with something I made for him.
Last year was his first year at the nursery, and he needed a backpack to bring his towel, his bib and some clothes.

I wanted to do something very special, something that will leave to him a beautiful memory of this time, like my mother did with me (I still have my little bag with two cats playing with water drops and my named sewed in red).
And then I found the right pattern!


This is another super work from this amazing book.
Always made with ikea Fabric, this for the exterior and this for the interior.
With a small red pocket inside, to keep small candy or an hankie.



I'm quite happy about the result, but I think that next time I will try some little changes, as for examples using a different fabric for the straps (I used a black linen fabric, because I was in a hurry as I sewed the backpack just the day before, but it's too slippery) and I will try to find a way to keep the back stright in place.
But F... he was enthusiastic and really proud of his backpack!And he is still really happy! :)

F. this morning ready for school :)
