Has the shoulder strap of your backpack ever ripped off while you were lugging around your textbooks and notebooks? Or maybe your one backpack strap couldn't handle the weight, so it just ripped off. This guide will show you how to reattach the torn off backpack shoulder strap with the simple backstitch sewing technique. You'll be able to save time and money, because you won't have to send it in, nor will you have to buy a new backpack. Happy fixing!

Emily your tutorial is great the photos are great
thank you. . . !
I know how much work goes into making a tutorial like this
Outstanding instructional! Thank you tho for hands down the best tutorial ive come across all day! TY for not starting off with 2 pages of your life story in the beginning too for real. great job with the instructions- easy to follow and to the point. I loved that there were a few pics in each step that if you glided over one of the images, it would highlight and enlarge as the main photo/step. extremely helpful and easy to guide through:) Also, can i just cut a small slice the size of strap through the bag at top and stick the strap end in and hand sew ? or do i have to have another piece of fabric sewn onto the strap to be able to do that....? i am trying to make it look like the strap never broke/was not repaired ya know? Than'Q!
