Good morning!
I'm super excited to show my purse...but I'll explain it a little first. The first picture is off the Figgy Pudding Rag Quilt Purse made with the Scallop Square Die (it's not finished). It's much easier to make them with the die because you can cut 8 squares at one time. You need 38 squares and if you cut one at a time, that's 38 times :) Here's the picture ........
I need to add the handles and the closing strap & then wash it. The next picture is of the first one I made......cute isn't it? I could do a little better in some areas but it's my first and I love it!!
Some people choose to make their purses with six different fabrics...but I put my own twist on it & made it with only three. The next one I'll show you will have six......my baby sister is here this weekend and I took her to the fabric store to pick out her own fabric.
Have a great weekend and thanks for stopping by!

p.s. I've loaded the Quilted Flowers video on You Tube...it should be processed and ready to view in a few hours.
p.s.s. oops, my 12 Weeks of Christmas newsletter did not go out this week....I'll explain more later and you can expect 2 of them this next week. (The project I made is so stinkin cute but it requires a few hours of work before I can share it.)
