    Book purse


    In my spare time today…yeah right… let’s try that line again.

    In the time I took neglecting other projects around the house, I made this book purse. I recently picked up the book at a library sale in town. I liked that it was square. I believe it’s a French author. 

    I used some white with tiny black polka dot fabric for the lining. There is just something about red, white and black that is such classic beauty to me.

    Silk tie bucket purse

    I checked out this book from the library last week and knew I had to make a tie bag.

    I had these ties stashed away knowing someday I’d use them.

    It took me a couple of hours to put together. I broke a needle on my machine as well in the process. First time I’ve ever done that!

    I learned that I had to manually “walk” the stitching forward by turning it by hand through the thick areas. Such technically accurate terms huh?! I am a trial and error girl. I don’t follow directions well. This may be an issue in my quest to learn to knit…

    Super cute purse!





    Check out this purse I found in my mom’s closet!

    She was keeping her hair rollers in it!!! What a waste. I asked her if I could have it and she let me..yeah!

    I think I’m going to change it a bit because I’m not completely sold on the stuff on the lid.
