Well, first and foremost, hello. :]
I've been browsing this site for about a week.. I wanted to find a website to inspire me to create things with my sewing machine. And hey, stumbling across this, and looking at many of your beautiful creations, definitely gave me inspiration!
I made a purple and gold drawstring bag with leopard lining that came from a skirt I used to wear. It has two pockets inside. My boyfriend says the colors look like a crown royal bag.. haha, it kind of does I have to admit! Anyways, I'm very proud of the job I did on this for my first actual time, there was no pattern or anything. I normally would carry a much bigger bag, but I still really like it and can wear it having a sense of accomplishment! =]
I apologize in advance if pictures aren't of great quality, or are too big..
But without further ado..

on my closet door.

Inside.

My arm looks very awkward, haha!

Excuse unmade bed..

Top part, ends of handles frayed.. which I really like.
Hope you enjoyed! <3
