Purses Galore

A month or so ago we had a young women activity that included us leaders making bag/purses for each girl.  It was so easy I made some for my own girls.  I allowed Carley and Lauren to pick out their own fabrics so they didn't turn out quite as cute.


Mark wanted me to make a bigger one for one of the ladies he works with.  I knew the original purse was a bigger size so I searched the Internet for the pattern and found a pattern I liked better.  It only requires a fat quarter for each color so I made one of those.



I loved it so much that I decided to make the pattern bigger.  I succeeded in making this one.


I made the strap too long and needed to use a better interfacing so this next one is the perfected purse.


They are so fun and easy to make.  I think it has become my new addiction.
