That turned out so adorable!!! I love how the colors of the plaid match the strap. And I adore the strawberry goodness print.
(fighting for a peace pin is counter-intuitive, heh.)

You did such an amazing job, I'm so jealous! I'd love to make myself a backpack for the new school year. It would be awesome if you made a tutorial.
I love the lining you chose and the rainbow buttons on the side! Are those decoration, or are you using them as a way to shorter or lengthen your strap?

i was going to make it ajustable but it wasn't going to be as sturdy so yeah they are just decoration :)

Hey i saw your comment on the picture of my hat I made out of my old uniform on the blog. I just wanted to clear things up that i didn't get the idea to make it from this, I was already in the process of making it when I first saw this thread. I just emailed corrinne the picture via email.
