I've had a bit of a production line going over the last couple of days, sewing up all my monoprinted fabric into these sassy little zippered purses. I think I'm in love with every single one! They sit flat, which I like, because they can then slip into your handbag easily. But I think the next bunch I do (yes - addicted) might have boxed corners, just for something different. And maybe some smaller ones?
This batch all measure about 9 and 1/2 inches by 6 and 1/2 inches. They are all lined with plain white fabric for a crisp, clean look.
The fronts and backs are different, but coordinated (it was lots of fun choosing which goes with what!) and they all have different coloured zippers.
The first question from my husband was, "What are you going to do with all of those?" Doesn't he know that Christmas is only about eight weeks away?! Of course I want to keep one for myself. And then I think I might sell a few either on my Etsy or Felt shop or maybe at the Kerikeri Patchwork and Quilters Club exhibition in January. Hmmmm, I might have to make some more so I can have a few in all those venues. Darn, what a chore that'll be ;-)
Do you have a favourite?
This is just the perfect activity to use your mini works of art - roll on Xmas!
ReplyDeleteToo cute - and great that you are using your very own fabric - how cool is that?!!
