This is Vicki Walker for Expert Village. Today for the purpose of our demonstration of a backpack for a little girl we have sewn the front to the back. After doing the casing we have applied the ricrac trim on the other side that you would see. It is time for us to turn the bag to see just what we got so far before we add the cord. I'm pulling through easily cause we have the rings from underneath. Our D ring should be seen on the other side here. There it is. So we have the main body of our backpack done. We can press our seams out a little bit from the inside by pushing a pair of scissors into the corner. That would give us a little clear shape down here on the bottom. On the other side. As I mention in a previous clip trim of another sort could have been added to the bottom. But this ricrac seems to be fine for this purpose and perfect for a little girl.
