This week I made some cute drawstring backpacks for Blend Fabrics to show off in their Spring Quilt Market booth. Sewing them up was so easy and fast that I see a tutorial in the future. Maybe on Monday, so be sure to check back! :)
UPDATE: My free pattern is ready... get it in my Craftsy shop here.
This one is made with a fun new fabric collection called Sports Fan.
The girly backpack is sewn from from Cori Dantini's The Makers collection. It is so darling and the panels were the perfect size. The backpack does look a little big for Cadie, but she's only 5, lol.
So, what have you been sewing up this week? Did you make something with one of my free sewing tutorials or patterns? I would love to see! Tag me on Instagram @sewcanshe.

The Fold and Stitch Wallet has two card slots and a money pocket on the inside.
There's a small coin pocket on the outside. Both the money pocket and the coin pocket have a velcro closure.
It's a great way to use up scraps and the wallet is a super little gift. This is exactly the same wallet, I'll just be showing you how to make it with your own fabric. And I've given instructions for using snap-setter snaps (such as Kam Snaps) instead of sew-on snaps. But you can still sew on snaps if you want. Or no snaps at all. :)
