A Backpack For Anton

 

In 2018 and in 2019 I sewed backpacks as Christmas gift for the daughter of my friend Monika. It was nothing complicated, very easy jeans backpacks, embellished with appliqué of Halloween motifs created by my favourite artist J. Wecker Frisch (I have a weakness for all the skulls, bats and ravens she designs every year!).  

Once, the father of the family borrowed one of the backpacks from his daughter and found it a very useful and fine thing. That´s why Monika asked me, this time  to sew a backpack for her husband. As I didn´t want to use skulls and ravens, I had to create something else, a bit more serious. 


I used torn strips from old jeans and some prints from my stash. Originally, I wanted to quilt by hand. But the time before Christmas is always extra short, so I had to quilt by machine. The result is quite sufficient, I think. 

 

The back part is made very simple, just in case Anton would not like the front part. 


Happy stitching!

Michaela
