This is a purse I started today. I changed up the pattern some and am happy with it except now I wish I had put in something to give it more stability. It will work as is, but hmm thinking my sister might like this. I'm still deciding on the closure and binding for the purse. It will be a solid red, just not sure zipper, flap, button ???
The inside is a lovely bright green :D. I love making liners a bright color. This is a pretty crappy pic, but I was taking it really fast before getting into bed to load this. You can see how I should have lined it :X
Figuring out how I want the coin purse and/or makeup bag...it's about the size of a dinner napkin and shaped much like one LOL. I can go a few ways with it as it is ...
Here is my prized duffel bag purse! It's ugly canvas/brown color but it's awesome! I used no pattern and winged it the whole way through and as soon as I remember to buy more colors of canvas and straps, I'll make more. I like the durability of the fabric...not sure if I'd make it in a lighter fabric. I can throw this around and not worry - well other than not smashing my phone, camera, ipod, etc LOL. They do have their own little padded sleeves but still :D
The inside is a very bright blue. I hope to find more blue fabric like this - it's a perfect liner color for a lot of fabrics I have. The inner design of the purse needs more - I did one blah pocket and it's rather useless. I have a few ideas for the next one. This purse is still my favorite even with its' flaws! The flower(s) I stenciled as an afterthought when I found my pattern test turned out usable.
I should sleep. Tomorrow is my first official day in the new job position!
