E has been talking a lot about backpacks lately (or as she calls them, "packbacks") so I thought I'd whip one up for her. I originally wanted to make either a bunny or a robot backpack since she's been obsessed with both lately, but I realized that they were going to require a bit more thought and planning. So instead, I came up with this monster backpack. The nice thing about monsters is no one cares if they look all wonky and ugly, haha! For instance, I misplaced one of the eyes I had cut, so I just snipped another out of a scrap from my pile. It doesn't get any better than that.
I made this out of fleece and felt and then stitched ribbon to some nylon webbing I had laying around for the straps. I think I may try and make a "nicer" one that'll be more finished-looking, and probably lined too.
Here's a shot of his 'mouth' with the flap up.

I love that! You did a great job. Do you think that would fit a folder?
I wanted to keep it small, so I don't think it'd fit a folder, but since I kind of winged it with the pattern, it'd be very easy for me to make it a little bigger so that it could. ;)
