I'll admit it ....
I browsed the Oliebollen website as given for the Inspiration Challenge this week ... and before I knew it ... I have placed 3 items in my cart for Christmas gifts!
Uh-Oh .... That's 'not' the challenge this week! LOL Eventually, I chose this item as the inspiration for my project above. If you haven't tried the SCS Resource area, check it out! Click on "Resources" at the top of any SCS page, then search for "backpack". Voila'! There's the tutorial!

Wonderful! Thanks for reminding us about the resource section of SCS. I often forget to look there for help but it is really packed with terrific ideas.

No, No, No, Bev, that's not what the inspiration is all about. I'm sure the website doesnt mind taking your order, but we need to stay focused on the job at hand .... creating a masterpiece inspiration card. I do believe you've gone and done just that w/this backpack for Mariana. This is adorable and your stitching is totally fun!
