UR Priceless! |
You can’t eat just one potato chip or make just one UR Priceless Coin Purse! Unfortunately you can run out of handles!
I have 3 finished purses, 4 sans handles and 1 on the machine because I forgot to cut enough side pieces. And many more planned. This purse was way too much fun to make- and I hate to hand sew. I did enjoy putting the handles on - maybe because the holes were there to guide me? I used coats and clark machine quilting thread and had no problem except when I got the thread caught on the clasp.
My first purse (actually it was the first one I planned to make but I actually made it toward the end) is already in Oklahoma with a very dear dear friend. After hearing the title of this hop, how could I *NOT* make a purse out of this fabric? I bought a ton of it- maybe I will make a matching bag?
After my initial confusion of the first few steps – (I tried to pin it sideways and it took me an hour to figure out what I was doing wrong.) Madam Samm’s instructions were amazing and fun to follow (the confusion was ALL me –had nothing to do with the instructions.)
I bet it would be fun to take a class from her in real life!
This is Breast Cancer Pink Ribbon Fabric but I didn't notice the ribbons were hidden- I should have fussy cut it |

This was actually the first one I made |
sorry about the wreath bits in the backgrounds |

bottoms up! |
inside of the owl purses |
I used upholstery fabric from a swatch board (that I found at a yard sale) for the sides of the owls and butterflies. I bought rick rack to put with the black and white checked ones but haven’t added it yet.
As you can see, I am in the midst of crafting for our Bazaar- I made 3 wreaths in-between blogging and pictures |

I am at our daughter, son in law, and grandbaby's home visiting, but wanted to stop by and check out the amazing coin purses!
Those are too cute!! I think I wanna make some of these for toddlers. Mine is always wanting something to keep his 'pennies' in, and his regular Spiderman wallet doesn't work. You did a great job, as always!!
Those are some lovely little purses. Love the bright colours you've used on some of them! Thanks for sharing.
Such cute purses! love them all!
