Purse made in the big city of Charlotte,

[julieboolie]

for the even bigger city of New York.

So who knew I had a whole other family in NY? I sure didn't. Well, not until last July. That's when I met my cousin Mary. She's the only family member that says Happy Birthday to me, my mom, and my little brother ON our birthdays. So I thought she deserved a little something special



baby blue satin-type lining and ribbon


pardon the bruises.

Everytime I make a bag I say it's my proudest one, because I get better and better. But I think this one beats all my past bags, and will beat the future ones. AND IT ONLY TOOK 3 HOURS(Making the pattern, ironing, cutting, sewing, more ironing.) AND it was my first bag with MATCHING(to the lining anyway) THREAD! (:
ps. the ribbon stuff really isn't crooked, it's just the way it hangs.

Mkay thanks for looking!

What a cute bag and very well made, it doesn't look crooked at all.  Is the lining satin?  Keep having fun with this..I know I am

Great Bag!  It looks perfect and I know your cousin will love it. Basic blue works with everything.  Family is so important it is great that you recognize her efforts

Ah, this is really cute! And I don't even really like purses all that much.

Also, we apparently live in the same city.

Thanks, she told my mom her favorite colors were black and blue. She's especially important, I didn't even know her before last summer, and she's closer to us then family that lives half an hour away.

I think it's satin, but it's a little stiffer then the satin I was taught to use.. but I'm pretty sure thats what it is.

Wow, great job - I know your cousin will love it.
