+Drawstring Backpack
+===================
+
+.. figure:: red_backpack.jpg
+   :align: center
+
+A drawstring backpack (or ten!) is an useful item to have around, a nice
+reusable container to wrap gifts in, but also an easy project for sewing
+beginners or to get experience with more demanding materials for more
+advanced sewists.
+
+Materials
+---------
+
+* Fabric: about 100 cm × 50 cm, see below for suggestions;
+* webbing, twill or grosgrain tape: 60 cm, 2.5 cm width;
+* cord: 4 meters;
+* 2 minibiners;
+* sewing thread.
+
+For beginners I'd strongly recommend using a sturdy cotton fabric and
+cotton tape, possibly matched with jute cord.
+
+For people who are confortable working with slippery materials (or are
+ready to start working on those), a lightweight water repellent fabric
+such a silnylon makes a pretty useful backpack; in this case nylon or
+polyester webbing and paracord are a good match.
+
+Instructions
+------------
+
+.. tip::
+
+   If using coated, water repellent fabric, you want to minimize holes,
+   so use a longer stitch than usual (e.g. 3 mm) and avoid using pins as
+   much as possible, only using them in the sewing allowances.
+
+   Do however backstitch at the start and end of all seams, for
+   stability.
+
+   Binder clips are useful to keep things in place without making holes,
+   even if they can't do miracles on extra slippery fabric like
+   silnylon.
+
+
+.. figure:: 01-webbing.jpg
+   :align: center
+
+Fold the fabric in half on the long edge to find the middle, and put the
+webbing on the right side, centered on the fabric; open the fabric.
+Starting from the center of the webbing measure every 4 cm and sew it to
+the main body, backticking on each seam.
+
+.. figure:: 02-finish-sides.jpg
+   :align: center
+
+Fold the long sides towards the wrong side by 1 cm, sew 1-2 mm from the
+fold, leaving the webbing free.
+
+.. figure:: 03-side_seam.jpg
+   :align: center
+
+Place the right sides together, folding the webbing so that its edge is
+aligned to the (just folded) edge of the fabric, sew the sides with 1 cm
+allowance, stopping 5 cm from the top; turn inside out.
+
+.. figure:: 04-bottom_angle.jpg
+   :align: center
+
+Sew and backtack on the webbing at about 1 mm from the border to
+stabilize the loop.
+
+.. figure:: 05-top_opening.jpg
+   :align: center
+
+Fold down the top edges by 1 cm, sew again 1 mm from the edges.
+
+.. figure:: 06-drawstring.jpg
+   :align: center
+
+Fold down again 2.5 cm and sew to create a channel for the drawstrings,
+backticking near both side seams to add stability.
+
+.. figure:: 07-finished_drawstring.jpg
+   :align: center
+
+The channel will have two openings: insert the cords so that they exit
+from the opposite corners, make a few knots at the bottom and attach
+them to the webbing loops with minibiners so that you can adjust the
+lenght.
