IT IS DONE!!!  This is my interpretation of NEW LOOK pattern 6574, got the idea from Adorn mag.  Anyway this took me forever to complete....I seem to do better with my own patterns, I guess its the rebel in me that hates instructions !! Not to mention, I HATE bias tape.. Anyhow here it is....... My fat quarter, machine pieced and quilted tote!!

Thanks for looking!

  I had these two purses ordered, one of them I had to special order fabric... on the special order fabric, drapery fabric, I had such a hard time placing pattern pieces so that the flowers would be shown well..  Then construction was difficult, I think it was just me being "in a mood" anyyyywhooo here they are... Thanks for looking

HI!

I have beening sewwwwiiiiiiiinnngg and sewwwwwiiiiinnng the past couple of days and this is one thing that I really like.  I made it for my ds's teacher who is due to have her little girl in 3 weeks.  It is a cute diaper clutch with a kanzashi flower pin.  I decorated a portable wipe container with some **bling** and put it inside with some diapers.. Hope she likes it ..







Thanks for looking....

   Here is another quilted purse I just completed..  To me it is very sweet and feminine..  See what you think..
