    Default backpack purse pattern?

    I am looking for either a pattern for a backpack purse. I don't want one that is huge, would like for it to have pockets inside and one or two outside....prefer something that is simple and streamline looking in design. Or if there aren't many patterns out there...has anyone seen a backpack style purse to buy ready made? Thanks.

    On a side note: Do any of you drive a 2012 Honda Accord or Toyota Camry? If so what is your opinion of them good and bad? Looking around and would like opinions. Thanks!

    I don't drive an Accord or Camry, but have a friend that all he'll drive is an Accord and I've driven Camry's before and really think if I were to go back to driving a car (I drive a Toyota Tundra) it would have to be a Camry. Toyota makes good vehicles. I own 2 Tundras now and had another before. I also have a Honda CRV. I don't think you can really go wrong with either brand.

    One thing about my truck, a 2007 Tundra Crew Max - made in the USA (Texas) and contains more American made parts than either Ford or Chevy trucks.

    I've made Lazy Girls Chelsea backpack a couple times. It goes together easy and is a nice size.

    I own a Camry and love it! I actually inherited it. I'ts the full package, leather seats, roof window and all the bells and whistles.I don't know what my aunt was thinking when she bought it. She hardly went anywhere. I had it shipped from calif to hawaii. I really want a small truck though for garden stuff. This car is a a little to fancy to haul dirt in. lol. I would recomend it though

    I have a pattern somewhere. I'll go look.

    My sister in law had an Accord that had over 200,000 miles on it when my daughter bought it. Daughter drove it for another 4 years, and the only reason she traded it in was the air conditioner needed more work than the cars blue book value. lol She traded it in on another Accord. We have a Tundra and a Carolla, love them.

    Those who say it cannot be done should not interrupt those who are doing it.

    I changed over to Toyotas in 2003 when I bought my first Prius. Loved it but it was involved in an accident during the years when they were impossible to get off the lots ( up to a 2 year waiting list for one!). Couldn't wait that long! So we went to Corollas, very fuel efficient. When my husband was diagnosed with a brain tumor his driving priviledges were suspended, so we had a bunch of vehicles in our fleet and we needed to whittle it down. The Toyota dealer took three in trade and actually gave us money and a new Highlander. We still have that, which my daughter uses. After my husband passed away, I Bought a Camry Solara convertible, red, of course. Still have it, it is 6 years old and the only service I've had on it was tires, battery and a thermostat. For a 6 year old car, it still is a headturner, and I'd buy another one in a heartbeat if only Toyota hadn't stopped making them.

    Don't know if Toyotas are still as reliable as they have been in the past, but of the 5 I've owned, they have been very reliable.

    Not to slam Honda, I hear they are very reliable also, the new Accord is good looking, but some of their other models are wierd looking, in my opinion.

    BTW there is a really nice looking back pack pattern on the above site under "Taylor Made Designs." Just put back pack in the search and scroll down till you find Taylor Made. Hugs, Jan L. I will keep looking.
