Summer Vacation Backpack Camp - meets 5 times
Summer Vacation Back-to-School Backpack (appropriate for advanced beginner or intermediate stitchers):
Meets every morning from 9 AM until 12:30 PM. Students will use a sewing machine to get ready to head back to school! Why go back with the same backpack everyone else is carrying when you can create your own? Three fabrics, two zippers, padded shoulder straps and handle. The perfect size for your books, your computer, your favorite unicorn binder. This project is challenging and will help students gain confidence installing zippers, using adjustable hardware, apply interfacing and pleat. If time permits we will make a coordinating tech sleeve and pencil case.
