Wish I could sew...I really would like to have a new machine :cry:

Unfortunately, the contest ends Feb. 29th and I just found this info today! :cry: :cry:

Yeah a little short on time, but you have a full week because you only have to email the pictures in. It depends on how long it takes you to make a purse. Me not long, it is comming up with the idea that takes forever! :?

Thanks for the info, my daughter makes and sells bags. I sent her the link over the weekend and she has her's entered now. She uses a lot of Amy Butler material. Gota keep our fingers crossed for Jamie!!!!!!

Well I did not enter so my fingers and toes are crossed for her to win! Let us know!
