****** UP DATE :) Fons and Porter are aces :)

Thank you everyone that helped me look for this pattern.. you will never guess where I found it!! I use to put all my projects together in one place. That is so I would know where the patterns, threads, and fabrics were. Guess what???? This is one of those that I did this with.. when I started looking at my quilted fabric selections to try and wing it.... there it was!!! The pattern right in the middle of the material. Boy was I sure surprised that I found it there... LOL it really is getting bad when your so old you forget what you use to do :) Anyway thank you for all the help and links to try and find a replacement :) By the way I looked on Ebay for the buy now mag and someone else must have purchased it before me or.. I just over looked it with these ole eyes of mine. Speaking of which after Vac is an appointment to get them checked again. I might have to have new lenses.. I am have trouble seeing the small stuff... ugh bi-focals X3 :) Everyone have a great day :)
Thank you again for all your help!! You guys are the greatest :)

  1. I found the perfect man, but alas, I cannot help you with the back pack pattern! It is awfully cute though. If I had the pattern, I would certainly have to make it!

    Sorry I'm no help at all :(
