92 sleeps and a new backpack

 I was asked by another member of our travelling family to make a backpack.  And since that member loves Pluto, it seemed only fitting to buy some fabric which included him.

However, in my excitement at finding a suitable fabric at an affordable price, I neglected to read the description properly.  I've done this before - you'd think I'd learn; but no, thrill of the find took over and I bought it regardless.  It arrived today and I discovered that Pluto will pretty much be the sole image on the front of the backpack - not the end of the world, but possibly ruling out a matching face mask!


I'm still really keen to see how it turns out, and how I can make the most of the design.  Time will tell and I'll post a picture of the finished backpack when it's done.  And maybe I'll even find a way to get a suitable mask out of it too. 

Will I ever learn to read descriptions properly?  Probably not; but then it does mean things are more interesting as a result. Let's see what happens :)
