Sewing

I won! And yet another Christmas present on the loose…

I got home from my family’s Christmas gathering yesterday and was reading through the new posts on my google reader and found out I was a winner of Wink Designs amazing giveaway!  My jaw nearly dropped on the floor while I was reading her post.   I guess I am a little lucky… 🙂

I made this bamboo handle purse for my sister-in-law for Christmas.  It was a fun purse to make.  I used this tutorial by Oh, Fransson! and just used the bamboo handles instead of the fabric loops.  (I cut the dimensions to 14w x 14t if you’re wondering).

It was a bit tricky trying to sew the handles in, but it worked!  I also referenced this tutorial from Little Birdie Secrets.  I love this fabric combination of Amy Butler Optic Blossom in Olive and Alexander Henry Fashionista Mod Dot in Nude. 
I think they’d also make a super cute baby quilt, hopefully someone I know will have a baby girl soon!
