How Do You Make Loops For D Rings For A Drawstring Backpack?
Drawstring backpacks are a simple sewing project that nearly anyone can complete. Choose the size, colors, and fabric you like best. Discover in a couple hours, you have sewn a custom-made drawstring backpack ready to use. Lay out your backpack fabric. Cut two pieces of fabric, 6 by 2 inches. Fold each piece lengthwise, with the attractive side out. The raw edges of the long sides should meet in the middle, and overlap slightly. Sew down the center, where the edges overlap, and press with an iron. Refold each piece, folding along one short width with the raw edges inside. Each piece is now about 3 by 1 inch wide. Press with an iron. Position the fabric for the body of the backpack with wrong sides together. Using a pencil, mark the fabric 1 inch from the bottom. Slip each of your fabric D-ring straps between the body pieces, keeping the short raw edges up against the backpack body. Place each D-ring strap so that the lower outside corner rests under the pencil mark you made in Step 4.
