Thing 2 has eyed Thing 1's drawstring backpack for awhile, and I'd been promising him one. And I finally followed through near the end of summer. Unlike Thing 1's, which was a surprise, I let Thing 2 help design his. He wanted one like my Chicago Blackhawks version, but bigger like his brother's. No problem!
Outer is black twill like mine, but he chose a red zipper. Good choice! And like mine, there's a full pocket on this side but not the other.
I added the D-ring again, and he got his own jersey key fob, made by my friend Sheila, who does amazing work as well as custom orders. Also, this year he needed his own house key, so he got to pick out the ribbon he wanted on his key fob. He loves going to Subway, so I wasn't surprised that he picked out the Zombie Subway ribbon.
Chicago Blackhawks block print for the lining of the outer pocket.....
....as well as for the lining. And this time I actually lined up that print for a full inner pocket. Look at that pattern matching! I'm still tickled by it! I think I used black for the backing of that pocket. I should probably look, because I don't remember.
And then I used some of the heavier black cording I got from Home Depot. It's been holding up pretty well. Thing 2 has used this bag pretty much non-stop for the last three months now! He's asked that the next one be camo for his "military" adventures with his friends.
