Another New Purse

I decided it was time for a new purse again, I know so quickly after the last one! But I couldn't help myself, I came across this purse

 

 

on Connecting Threads website and really liked the looks of it and since I've made so many purses, I decided to give it a try without the pattern.  Since I didn't have exact directions to follow I missed a few things, like fusible fleece on the bottom, now I have a saggy bottom, no problem I fixed it with cardboard, and I also forgot to make the loop to put over the botton, will probably add that later, but here is my finished product along with the wallet I made to go with it

 

 

I'm very pleased with how it turned out and since we are so close to Valentine's Day the red is great.  My colors don't show up the greatest but then again I'm definitely not the photographer in the family and I don't always remember (almost never) to ask for his help in this area.  Normally I'm lucky if I remember to take the picture before I give something away.  Maybe tonight I'll ask him to take a better picture of the purse and wallet and I'll upload them, if I remember!!

 

Well hopefully everyone else had a productive weekend!

 

Until next time,

Jodi
