"This tutorial was fantastic! The pattern pieces were straight-forward, though following the instructions on paper alone was fairly confusing. I would HIGHLY suggest watching the tutorial video the seller links if any part of the written instructions is unclear to you. This is NOT a beginner pattern and I struggled through it, but it is expected as someone whose most complicated project before this was a service dog cape. Even still, I went into my backpack acknowledging that this was a pattern out of my league, but hey it came out successful!! I used metal lobster snaps instead of plastic ones, and added a pineapple pull charm to each zipper <3 Thank you so much for this fantastic pattern! I'll definitely be using it again."
