Magazine pattern altered by me...

Instructions

It was a quilting magazine pattern that I altered the handles to suit myself...I've had it in the UFO box with all the materials for about a year and treated myself after finishing my hubby's quilt!

Difficulty:

Category: Sewing

Type of item: Accessory

For: Other

Style: Whimsical, Casual, Funky


What was your inspiration?

Loved the fabrics- I picked them up on a trip through Padukah, Ky.

What are you most proud of?

I added a magnetic snap and changed the pattern to have 2 handles- the original had 1 handle across the middle made of fabric

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Don't be afraid to experiment!!
