Today's Splitcoast Technique Lovers Challenge was to make these little backpack boxes in honor of going back to school. This was very challenging for me. Having made one though I think next time would be a lot easier. I used blue ribbon for the handle and straps. I used twine for the front closure. I used velcro sticky dots on the two flaps. I faux stitched around the edges of the flaps. I added quilled flowers.
