Free Sewing Patterns For Children

Does anyone know where I can find a free sewing/quilting pattern for a backpack for teenagers?
I want to quilt/sew a full size backpack for our kids school–not the little kiddie size ones that are for younger children.
Wild Ginger has a software program that is free called “Wild Things” – you tell it how big you want and it prints pattern pieces on your printer – you just tape them together. There is a backpack with a flap, as well as a zippered messenger bag, called a shoulder bag on their descriptions. I’ve used this program to make matchy halloween bags. I’m just a satisfied dedicated customer – no affiliation…
I did a search for “backpack” on craftster.org, and got like 20 pages of homemade backpacks that people have made there. I think what might be most helpful for you might be the messenger bag tutorials below, with double straps instead of one – the straps would attach at the top and bottom. It is not that hard to do and doesn’t require a pattern.
