Audrey's Backpack

Toddler Backpack

Today I set aside the whole afternoon for sewing. I've got serious work to do on my wedding dress. We're 43 days away from the wedding, and I've got nothing. (Insert panic here.) Well, not exactly nothing. I finally got it started it a few days ago, but progress is slow. I'm designing the pattern and I don't really know how, so I'm always afraid to screw it up and never really sure of what to do next. So I procrastinate. Obviously.

And so today I made a backpack for my amazing niece's (belated) 2nd birthday. The pattern is Made by Rae, and it gave my pins more trouble than it gave me. This child is going to take over the world, I'm pretty sure of it. And now she has a little pink backpack to help her on that mission. It'll be neat to see her with it when they come down to visit next. In October. For my wedding. Oh man. (Wedding panic returns.)

Sorry I've been MIA for a month. Avoiding this space makes it easier to avoid the dress. Although I have gotten a bunch of other things done. Next up to show you - the invites! They're in the mail as of yesterday!!
