Thanks for entering! This giveaway is now closed. Our next giveaway will open tomorrow morning at 6 am eastern.
On the tenth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me…ten lords-a-leaping, nine ladies dancing, eight maids-a-milking, seven swans-a-swimming, six geese-a-laying, five golden rings, four colly birds, three French hens, two turtle doves and a partridge in a pear tree!
…and Rae gave to me a Toddler Backpack Sewing pattern!
This backpack is designed for tiny backs and little shoulders: perfect for toddlers to pack their toys and treasures for play dates and excursions. Since you probably won’t be able to stop at making just one, this pattern does include instructions to enlarge the backpack to fit school-aged children.
There are countless renditions of the Toddler Backpack in its dedicated Flickr Pool; the variety and attention to detail are astonishing! I love how some have added side pockets for water bottles, front zip pockets, appliqued animals, the list goes on.
1. Owls 2. Quilted, 3. Bicycles, 4. Doctor Who
The selection of photos above were taken from the Toddler Backpacks Flickr Pool.
Leave one comment on this post before 10 pm EST tonight for your chance to win this little backpack sewing pattern. The winner will be randomly selected, contacted via email, and will receive a PDF copy of the Toddler Backpack Sewing Pattern; all winners will be posted at the end of this series as well. Void where prohibited by law.
Two more pattern giveaways left in our “Twelve Days of Christmas” series you guys!! Can you guess what they will be?

I thrifted my daughters bag for day care… I hate buying all that licensed, gender specific, crap. It is a little small though. A mummy made back pack would be an awesome alternative… Though i’d probably use some vintage holly Hobbie fabric to make it which is maybe just a bit hypocritical….. It’s tough being a mum lol

I’ve had my eye on this backpack for literally YEARS! I can never choose fabric for it and it seems so daunting to progress from BBBPants to a backpack!! My second son will start Montessori this year and I’d love to be brave enough to make them one each, they’re the perfect size for a change of clothes and some lunch.

This seems like an awesome pattern and I love seeing all the different fabrics used for it. (As an aside, my husband gave me a set of ornaments for Xmas after Xmas – he forgot to wrap them up – they are the 12 days of Xmas and it has “4 calling birds” on it and we are in Australia (although they are probably made in china::seems like it could be a rare find to have it say 4 colly birds??)
I want I want I want!!! And I love that Doctor Who one! Hope I win!!!
Fantastic!
I love this! I’d love to win!
My daughter would love this! So cute
