Bellaclip Backpack Pattern

$10.50

Bellaclip is a fun and functional backpack with several unique safety and user-friendly features.

Outside, there are 3 overlay options to choose from: folded edge, raw edge, or an overlay with a slim, hidden zippered pocket. The instructions show how to sew this on a flatbed machine, where you have limited access due to tight spaces. I reduced bulk everywhere possible to make this bag easy to put together on any type of sewing machine.
