Hi, have just made the Floral mini Backpack, Loved it & thank you both the written & video instructions were exceptionally clear & easy to follow. I had intended it for myself but the straps are too short so my Grandaughter is now the proud owner of it. Is there anyway you could inform people of the length as had I realised I could have either used some other fabric to extend the straps or for the straps in their entirety. Keep doing what you’re doing your kits/patterns are wonderful. x
Hello,
