Yesterday I bought some Christmas fabric at Walmart (great sales!!). I'm planning to use it for a bow tuck. I've never made one before, but I'm SO nervous. I keep think I'll start it, then I think no. lol Need some cheerleaders!!!

Don't be nervous just follow the steps and ask questions when you run into one!

Here is the tute I used and there is one someone did on the board too.

Please send some cheerleaders my way. I have had the pattern and then I found another pattern just like it. Now I have 2 of the bow tucks purse and can't get the nerve up to make one....what a wimp I am.....come on cheerleaders. I even live with a high school cheerleader and would give her the purse, but she doesn't cheer for me.....oh well...someday

Just follow each step. I usually cut it all one day and then sew it another day. If you get stumped just post a question or check out the "Search" for help. Once you do the first one you will realize that there is nothing to it!:)

My first question...do I have to quilt the fabric? Or can I use it as is?
