Convertible Towel Backpack Sewing Tutorial

A day at the pool or beach is always fun – but what’s not fun is all the stuff you have to tote to and from. Heather Handmade shows how you can create a convertible towel backpack that will help cut down on the number of things you have to carry. Instead of carrying the towel in your hands or stuffing it into a bag, with a couple of snaps you can turn it into a backpack. Go to Heather Handmade to see how to make it.
