some more purses...

These next purses are medium to large sized.  I have been using woven type fabrics, because they seem so much more summery.  Ultimately I am limited by the recycled clothing that I can get a bargain on, but I have found quite a few linen items....
 This was a new design, and somewhat experimental, but I think I like the results.  I especially love the button that I found along with a whole bag of cool  buttons.


 These two are the same design as the "little girl purses," but the next size up.



This is another "experimental" design, and was more complex than I thought it would be, but I like how it turned out.  It makes me think of a beach bag, or a bag to take along to the park...:)

purses for the essentials

I've been working on purses and totes of all shapes and sizes.  These cuties are small... maybe little girl sized?  My girls sure thought so...:)



These two are just a step larger, but perfect for holding the essentials.  I had a lot of fun modifying the pattern and finding scraps to pull inspiration from that I would normally overlook as too small.   


Cute and summery!
