When I go fabric shopping, pink is not the first color I am drawn to. I'm drawn more to the batiks and primary colors. However, I've looked around lately and found that I have numerous fabrics with pink in them. So, I decided it's time to use more of them. Yesterday evening was the day I finally tackled a purse I've been wanting to try. I learned so much working on this pattern:
Mill House Inn Tote Bag on the
Moda Bakeshop site. Great use of honey buns!
So, here's what I ended up with. My lining needs trimmed down a little more, it's too big. But, other than that, I think it turned out pretty good for my second purse. I may change the button catch though. I think it may be too much pink polka dot. You should give the pattern a try. Now, who to give it to? Maybe I'll tuck it away for Christmas!
Thanks for stopping by!

Looks great! I agree about changing out the button tab...something alittle more subtle would be better.
ReplyDeleteIT really is a cute tote. I'll have to hop over there and check it out. I like looking at purses, but haven't made many yet...love the inspiration everywhere though.
