Drawstring Backpack

Created On: May 31, 2021  |  Updated: May 30, 2021  |   2 Comments

When we go from spring to summer, I want to ditch my everyday purse for a quick and simple option, like this drawstring backpack! You can whip one up with 3 half yard cuts of fabric and about 90 minutes. The perfect summer backpack to toss in your necessities all summer long!

This drawstring backpack is made using two purse clasps to hold the bottom of the straps in place. This makes it perfect for attaching to a fence or gate when you’re not wearing the backpack – great for keeping your things off of the ground. This summer backpack is a simple sewing project – you’ll find yourself making them for your family and friends as well!

The pattern is FREE to download – just join the mailing list here:

    It’s funny as I’ve found I’ve really stopped taking a handbag (purse) everywhere with me since the pandemic and lockdowns. Not going anywhere except for a walk means I’ve really got used to not having a bag! This type of hands free simple bag could fit really well into my life just now as things open up and I venture out more!

      Same! I find I don’t need nearly as much “stuff” with me anymore!
