In the Designer's Words: "Last year I made a mini bag for my niece using Dora print fabric as it is her favorite cartoon.One day during a random phone conversation with her, she asked for a bigger Dora bag as she cannot carry many things in her small bag. So, I decided to make her a Dora Backpack for her birthday this year. I made my own pattern to sew a backpack and this came better than expected.Now, let's get to the making of this bag."
