I FINALLY made quiet bags for my kids to take to church. I've been meaning to do this since my oldest was a baby (& he's almost 5 now). I used
this tutorial from Zaaberry to make kid-sized messenger bags. I had a hard time picturing how big the bags would be before I made them, and if I were to make them again I'd make them a few inches bigger. Other than that, I'm happy with how they turned out.
I added pockets to the inside (instructions for this were not included in the tutorial) because I wanted to keep their snacks separate from their toys. I used their favourite granola bar as a guideline for the pocket size.
 |
| Step 1: Cut out 2 rectangles for flap and 2 rectangles for pocket. Sew around edges leaving opening for turning. Clip corners. |
 |
| Step 2: Turn rectangles right side out, iron, and sew along top of pocket and bottom of flap. Sew on velcro using a zig-zag stitch. (I cut my velcro in ovals just because I like how it looks.) |
 |
| Step 3: Sew sides and bottom of pocket to centre of lining. Place the flap so the velcro matches together and sew along the top attaching flap to lining. |

ReplyDeleteKailey has switched to using her hello kitty backpack.... I need to make one of these!!! Well 2 of these I guess.....
Cute!!!! (Like Josh would say). I love the bags and it looks like fun stuff inside. I was having trouble with Oliver in church, so, along with mom, I came up with a complicated system to keep him focused. IT is working pretty well. I'll try and do a post on it sometime soon!
