Now, are you ready to design your own backpack? If so, let's get started!

Step 1: Select Size

Large Size @ $ 95.00 (14" Wide x 11 1/2" High x 6" Deep)

Step 1A: Do you need a different size Backpack from what has already been described?

You can input your own preferred size for your custom backpack on the form below. I have three size: L, M, and S. You custom size must not exceed the size I have in Step 1 above for each size to be considered as Large, Medium or Small.

Click on the button to select your preferred size and input the size (WxHxD) on the form provided. The price is slightly higher, an additional $ 15.00, since I have to make special templates for your custom backpack.

Large size @ $ 110.00. Input Size: e.g.13x10x5

Medium size @ $ 100.00. Input Size: e.g. 13x9x4

Small size @ $ 90.00. Input Size: e.g. 12x8x2

Step 2: Choose Fabric for Outside Shell





Step 3: Select Fabric for Lining

The fabrics below are available for lining. Please select one that compliments your outside shell fabric.

Note: I purposely added 1 toile print for the lining. These prints are nice when paired with the solid black outside shell.




Step 4: Select Fabric for Outside Border

The fabrics shown below can be used for an outside border. If you don't make a selection in this step, I will make the outside shell entirely from the fabric you chose in Step 2.




Step 4A: Choose Location for Outside Border

You must complete Step 4 in order to select the location of the outside border.

Three locations for the border fabric are offered: top, bottom, and both top AND bottom. There are no additional cost if you choose a top OR bottom location, but there is a $ 5.00 additional cost if you select to have the border fabric at the top AND bottom of the backpack.
