This is the bag for the person who says, “I’m just running in for one thing,” and returns with a candle, two books, a snack, and something wrapped in tissue paper.
Handmade from repurposed textiles, these medium-sized drawstring backpacks are the slightly smaller cousins of the larger carry-all bags. Still roomy. Still useful. Just a bit more compact and polite about it.
Each one has been created from rescued fabrics like quilts, upholstery fabric, pillow shams, and other textiles that clearly had more story left in them. Some are bright and botanical, some are quiet and earthy, some look like they may have spent a previous life in a guest room with excellent wallpaper. All have that one-of-a-kind charm that mass-produced bags keep trying, and failing, to fake.
The drawstring closure makes it easy to toss in your essentials and go. The exterior pocket is ready for your phone, keys, lip balm, market list, or the receipt you are absolutely going to need later and will definitely lose anyway.
It is a practical little backpack with a rescued past and a suspiciously adventurous future.
Take it for errands, walks, travel days, craft fairs, or anywhere your hands need to be free.
Because pockets are good, but a small backpack with character is better.
