The pattern was designed for quilting cotton, and can be made on a domestic sewing machine! Experimentation with cork or vinyl is encouraged, but cautiously as some domestic sewing machines may struggle with the layers.
There is a laptop compartment in the back that zips open to slip your laptop in from the top and be protected against your back and from all the items in the main compartment. The large body of the backpack has two interior zipper pockets and lots of space for you to add all the unique pockets that you can imagine. The front of the backpack has a unique curvy zipper pocket with a pleat at the bottom that allows it to expand to hold all those laptop things you may need.
Finished Size
The finished size for the original sized backpack is 16" tall, 11" wide at the widest point and 5-1/2" deep.
Pattern testers consider this pattern ideal for intermediate to advanced bag makers.
