How to Make a Minnie Mouse Drawstring Backpack
Minnie Drawstring Backpack
While we have been getting ready to go to Disney World, I decided I needed to make a fun little backpack for Addy to carry on the plane. To stuff with all of her little toys and crayons, and maybe even her favorite Mickey Mouse. After learning how to make a drawstring backpack earlier this summer, I realized just how easy it was and had to make another! ( I am sure I will be getting lots of requests after this from all of the kiddos in the house. ) And if you remember this post, then you know we LOVE Minnie Mouse around here. Check out out fun DIY Minnie Mouse Drawstring Backpack.

My sewing machine also happens to double as an embroidery machine, so I decided to add her name at the bottom of the face. You can go online and download the Disney font, and I had that from a few things I had monogrammed last year.
For the bow, I took a small 5 inch rectangle of fabric and then did a straight stitch around all of the edges. I pressed it down in the middle and did another small straight stitch to cinch it down. Then another to attach it to the face.
The only other change I decided to do was NOT make a lining. It’s going to be hot in the parks, and having something lightweight is going to be preferable to something thicker and heavier. (I am sure it will be STUFFED till the seams burst, but hey, it’s Disney, right?)
Those are the few little changes I made, and here is her final product!! She was so excited to see this….she loves her little Minnie backpack. I hope you are able to easily follow all of the instructions for how to make a drawstring backpack and can make one of these, too!
