A couple of weeks ago a friend of mine asked if I would be willing to make a backpack doll for her niece and I jumped at the chance. Since the moment I completed the first backpack doll, I have been anxiously waiting for an opportunity to try out some new ideas.
The basic doll pattern stayed the same, but I revamped the backpack by scaling it down in size and making the straps adjustable.
As a fun touch, I created my own print design for the backpack fabric by using the end of a triangle ruler as a stamp.
I really love how this one turned out, and the best part... it cost less than $2.00!
Because I was able to find all the fabric I needed in my stash and salvaged the strap hardware off of an old backpack, the only expense was the zipper.
That triangle print is so great!
