    Default Finally made something for me :)

    I decided to sew today,and this is the result. All made from existing materials. Use some creativity to make the fabric stretch to accomplish the project..lol.

    I do think I'll make several of these for my craft sale in October. Great way to use up leftovers

    That is beautiful. It reminds me somewhat of a Vera Bradley. Enjoy your new bag.

    Thanks Ladies! It felt good to sew today! I haven't in awhile.

    I need to get back to drafting. I want to create a line of purse patterns..lol

    Ok, I had to try this..lol

    I'm much to commited to debt reduction as to order the pattern online, so here's my interpretation of the wonder wallet everyone has been talking about. Not sure it's the same or not..lol. But it works

    Next I want to create a card wallet. All cards. I have a whole bunch of club cards, memberships etc that I like to have. Thinking it'll be like a checkbook size...lol. Thinking outloud now.
