Description
This is a pattern to make Finn's backpack from Adventure Time, as requested by a few people! It makes this bag here: 
This pattern is intended for someone who already knows a thing or two about sewing... I suggest using POLAR FLEECE FABRIC! In both light and dark green. You will also need a zipper.
Cutting Instructions
1. Download and print this image. There are websites that let you print large pictures over several pages.
2. Cut out each shape.
3. Take your light green fabric and fold in half, right sides together. Lay piece 1 on top of it and trace around with pen. Cut out through both thicknesses leaving 1/2 inch margin (seam allowance)
4. Do the same for piece 2, except on your dark green fabric.
5. Lay your light green fabric face down on the ground/table(not folded). Put piece number 3 on top, trace round, cut out with 1/2 inch margin.
6. Do the same for piece 4 using dark green fabric.
7. Lay dark green fabric face down and put piece 5 on top. Trace around and cut leaving margin.
There, you have pieces. Now do the same steps 1-7 for your lining. You should have the same pieces for lining as for main fabric.
Sewing Instructions
1. With right sides together, sew curved edges of both 1 pieces to curved edge of piece 3.
2. Do same for both 2 pieces and curved edge of piece 4.
3. matching seams, with right sides together, sew green half of bag to dark green half of bag. Only sew halfway through segments 1 and 2 to leave room for zip.
4. IMPORTANT: Back panel (piece 5) is deliberately too small. GATHER bag onto back panel, it gives a poofy shape!
remember to put the straps into the seam here! I think you guys can figure out how to make straps.... sew 2 long rectangles together...
5. Do same steps for lining.
6. Put lining inside bag, pin, stuff to give fatness.
7. Put in zip.
any questions, ask me! :3

I made this backpack as I am dressing as Fiona the Human for Halloween this year, and for anybody else using this pattern, I couldn't get it to print big no matter what I did, so I ended up just guesstimating and then basing all the other measurements off of one measurement (height of main back panel circle). I drew the pattern out onto this pattern-making material I own that has 1x1 inch squares. I could send a picture to anybody if they want me to, but here are some basic measurements:
Piece 1: edge that attaches to piece 2: 9 inches,
edge that attaches to piece 5: 7 1/2 inches
Piece 2: both straight edges: 9 inches
Piece 3: height: 12 1/2 inches,
larger base: 7 1/2 inches,
smaller width: 3 1/2
Piece 4: height: 14 1/2 inches,
larger base: 7 1/2 inches,
smaller width: 4 1/2
Piece 5: Height: 14 inches,
width: 10 inches
I also attached the zipper to the 7 1/2 inch edges of pieces 3 and 4 FIRST and then attached pieces 1 and 2 together and then those 1:2 pieces were attached to the 3:4 pieces, but that's because I had an exactly 7 inch zipper and could do it this way, if your zipper extends past the larger width of pieces 3 and 4, you will need to do zipper last
Also one other edit I did was I used a flat quilting-type batting instead of big fluffy poofy stuff, and I basically cut the entire pattern out again in this 1/2inch-1inch thick batting, and then sewed that into the wrong side of all the pieces of lining, and then pieced together and inserted the lining. This gave it a decently poofy shape while still allowing a lot of space for storing things in it. But you can do it either way!
