the "Jenny" purse

This small purse is a custom order for a client named Jenny. She specified the size, handles, inside pockets and picked out the fabric. I think it turned out well- it's a cute size that can hold the essentials. Maybe I'll make some more in other colors...

New bag

This is my newest bag- vintage tablecloth piece and several coordinating newer fabrics. The double button is vintage. I decided to really mix up the fabrics on this one-with the back being completely different- you don't see the back much so I didn't want to waste my precious vintage tablecloth pieces on that- show them off on the front! I think it's fun- happy, bright colors.

Sewing....

Finished these 2 projects today. The pillow is made from a beautiful wool coat that belonged to a friend's Aunt. I had to put the labels and one of the buttons on it - how cool! The wool is sooo soft!
The bag is for another friend- I've had the fabric for years- she probably doesn't even remember I have it...I can be SO slow! I had fun with the adjustable strap.
Now- what to make next????? hmmmmmm
