Finally!

At last, I have finished this purse. It is a larger version of a bag that I designed for myself. It measures approx 12.00" tall x 13.00" at its widest point and has a long strap that is adjustable. I am pretty pleased with this bag (and with the fact that is finally finished!).

I am also committed to making a matching wallet, but it needs to be larger than my "cute little wallet". I have some designs drawn up and I really would like to get that done before Halloween.

The pictures below are of the purse I designed for myself for the summer, but as September comes rolling in it means that I will have to design something more "fally".

A New Project!

I always enjoy starting a new project - I like drawing up patterns and picking out materials. I think it is the finishing that I have a hard time with.

I decided to make some fun ornaments (see above) in order to put off finishing a custom purse that is still waiting to be put together. During the course of the ornament project I decided that I should make some more mini wallets (see below).

As you can see, the mini wallets are done, but the ornaments are not. I now have to decide whether to finish the ornaments first or the purse. 

Maybe I will make those scarves I have been thinking about all summer...
