Last minute entry to the Purse Palooza! (button on your right!)
I made a cute little framed clutch using U-Handbag's Fortune Cookie pattern (and frame).
The fabric is matching the piece I used for my messenger bag makeover posted last week. It's from the Laura Gunn Lantern Bloom collection. I love this fabric! The lining is a bit of Denyse Schmidt to coordinate.
I didn't enter the messenger bag in the Purse Palooza because strictly speaking, I did not make the bag - I just gave it a lovely facelift. But I will say that the Palooza inspired me to make some bags in the past couple of months, so even though winning a contest is always a longshot with so many talented people out there - this event was quite effective!
I will also link up with the fabulous Friday linky parties, as usual:
Whoop! Whoop! with Sarah
And TGIFF over at Quilt Matters
Show-off Friday with Elizabeth at Pieceful life
Oooh, that fabric is awesome, Janet. Yay for a fabulous finish! I'll have to try a purse one of these days.
ReplyDeleteThat is so cute. The DS inside is a great choice. They look so nice together.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute, cute purse! How does the fabric stay in the frame? Is it clamped in?
ReplyDeleteI keep seeing this little fortune cookie bag, I have got to look into it. Yours is adorable!
ReplyDeleteloving the bag - the shape and the fabrics :)
