I love sewing and designing - I was shopping at my local fabric store and came across this amazing red cotton fabric. I just had to turn it into something great. After watching all of my favorite 1940's movie this weekend - I was inspired to use the fabric and make a modern day glamorous verson of a rucksake. Think Huckleberry Fin with high heels and lip stick!! It was very easy to make - you can make almost any size. Figure out how big you want it - cut out 2 perfect squares. Here is the link to the pattern and the directions.

I LOVE your style!
That is so fantatic -- I too love the vintage and can't wait to make myself a bag! :)K
this bag is fabu! I'm gonna feature it on my blog tonight. I want to make one when I get my new sewing machine in a few days--what were the dimensions of YOUR square and handle?
melissa - I believe it 42 x 42 a perfect square. Let me look at see what it was and I will let you know!!!
merci beaucoup pour ce beau sac!!!!!
Very neat! I have carried a bag 'hobo style' using a gorgeous cane as the stick and get interesting reactions; wonder if anyone else has experience of this.
this is so cute! love your pics almost as much as the bag. :)
