Instructions

I am in the process of writing up the directions. It's a bit time-consuming because of the complexity of the design...mainly the zipper. But it will be here ...soon!

Difficulty:

Category: Sewing

Type of item: Accessory

For: Women

Style: Classic, Traditional


Materials

Fabric, curtain grommets, zipper

What was your inspiration?

My friend saw a bag at Ballard Designs. I used the general idea to design this one. d

What are you most proud of?

Figuring out an easy way to put the zipper in. I want to write the pattern up, so I knew I needed to find a simple way to put it in. I also had some scrim-backed sew foam that I got at JoAnn Fabrics. It was perfect stabilizer for this bag. I used it in the straps, too. That's why everything stands on its own!!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

This is for more experienced sewists. But it's a great project for someone who wants a bit of a challenge.

Great bag but your cat looks a bit horrified about what's inside!

HA!! I would bet that she's thinking, "Maybe if I get next to this purse and look coy, mom will pay attention to me."
