It's never too late to be ready for back-to-school!
Having sent two kids off to school each fall for over ten years now I know it's important to get ready for the big day as soon as possible.
To help, we've put together what we think is the ultimate back-to-school sewing roundup with ideas and free patterns for everything from lunch bags to pencil cases and from messenger bags to backpacks.
I hope these ideas help you get ready for the big day!

Love these thanks!! i agree with Bonnie from above. These will make really great and easy Christmas gifts! my teen girls are going to start making some today!
It is never too early to start!
Wow! Thanks so much for this collection. I do not have school age kids around, but I am however, beginning to work on Christmas gifts. Many of these will transition into traveling craft projects cases, fishing trip bags, totes, and other light weight useful gifts that won’t cost a lot for shipping. I will use a LOT of this info. You rock !
