I've done some sewing in the past couple of weeks. I'm kind of proud of this little number. I made up the pattern myself and here is what I came up with.
It's a cute little clutch, perfect for a night out to hold your lipstick and things. I don't know that I'll ever have a chance to use it, so I'll probably give it away. We'll see.
Next, I have cautiously entered the world of pinterest. What I found I liked, but I haven't quite figured it out. I feel totally behind, but that's OK. I really don't need another reason to sit behind the computer for hours on end. However, I did see some little felt wallets on there that inspired these.
Some time ago I made a purse out of my grandma's old cashmere coat. These are left over pieces of the coat. I might have to make a few more.
Then I had an after thought and put a little decoration on the front. Then I wished I hadn't. Oh well, they don't look so bad.
The first one inspired a second one. Not to bad for not really having a pattern!
Here they are together. I think I'll make a few more.
oooo! so cute. for the record, i'm as behind on pinterest as you! i still don't get it (and maybe don't want to) and i love your little clutches. the first is gorg and the seconds are very impressive w/o a pattern. and i really do love the decor on the front. i need you to teach me how to sew in a zip ... massive fail last night. i'll blog about it. you'll laugh.
ReplyDeleteDon't be too hard on yourself. I have a love/hate relationship with zippers. I just broke a needle on one about 15 minutes ago.
