The plastic templates are a brilliant idea and a great bonus." - The Sewing Directory New to the highly acclaimed Build a Bag series, Debbie Shore brings you a selection of 15 brilliant backpacks! The 15 designs are created using the full-size rigid template contained within the book. It is easy-to-use, durable, reusable, wipe-clean and perfect for fussy cutting, plus it is simple to position and use – there is no need to pin it. The backpacks are made using different techniques, pockets, straps and fastenings to create 15 very different results. But why stop there? The template can also be used for your own design variations. As you mix and match the techniques covered within the book, Debbie gives advice on how to adapt and create your own unique designs. Each project in the book is explained using Debbie’s friendly style and easy-to-follow step-by-step photography, and there is also a comprehensive techniques section and a guide to using the template. Review: Great instructions - Another brilliant book by Debbie Shore, great instructions for backpack making, easy to follow and good quality templates. I have several of Debbie’s books and will get more. Review: Beautiful Book, Well Presented & Clear to Follow Instructions - So impressed with this book! The book itself is a paperback, but comes in a hard cover that includes the plastic templates. Some lovely bag designs of different sizes, with clear and precise instructions and photographs. There is even an Oops section that covers the things that can go wrong and how to correct them. I have yet to try out the patterns, but am confident that the bags will be easy to make following Debbie's instructions. The book allows you to follow a basic pattern, then adjust to your needs (pockets, applique, etc) meaning you're not restricted to the patterns in the book. This is my first Debbie Shore purchase, but very impressed, and will be looking at her other books now! ## Features - New Store Stock ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 90,054 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 103 in Patchwork & Quiltmaking 220 in Textile Arts 281 in Fashion Design | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 437 Reviews | ## Images ![The Build a Bag Book: Backpacks: Sew 15 stunning projects and endless variations - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81nC8VPzDxL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great instructions *by A***R on 23 August 2023* Another brilliant book by Debbie Shore, great instructions for backpack making, easy to follow and good quality templates.

I would call myself an intermediate sewer with a lot to learn. This book gives templates and clear instructions to construct a variety of backpacks for kids and adults. You can let your imagination go on designs, add bits etc if you are creative. With all the patterns included, this book really is great value for money. I have a couple of Debbie's other books, all of which I find ideal, and have met Debbie at a demonstration - she is very funny, down to earth lady who loves to share her knowledge and skills with others. Would definitely recommend this book unless you are a very accomplished bag maker looking for more intricate designs, but you can always adapt these basic patterns easily. I've made two already and had the book less than a week! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/141375653-the-build-a-bag-book-backpacks-sew-15-stunning-projects](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/141375653-the-build-a-bag-book-backpacks-sew-15-stunning-projects) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-07-04*
