I have a slight addiction to making purses. I love purses. I always want a new purse.
So the other day I came up with this design. It was a late night idea that turned out much better than I anticipated. It has two exterior pockets as well as two interior pockets. I added two additional smaller flowers on either side of the large one. You’d think I would have taken a picture of the final product but no…
It’s a really big bag. I don’t know that I will use it too long, because I really want something more spring-ish. Some brighter colors. Still on the search for the perfect fabric for that one. I bought this brown bird fabric a few years ago, because it was just SO pretty. It’s a decorator weight fabric by P. Kaufman.
I also made another bag a couple of weeks ago.
I had a sudden urge to do a little needlework around some of the flowers…LOVE the result. Again, this was a really big bag, not sure that I will end up keeping it! The fabric is from Good Folks by Anna Maria Horner.
