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?

I am a beginner sewer and mine turned out great!! I cut it out one night and then sewed it together the next day!! It took me awhile, but not forever!! Just do it and enjoy it if you mess up then rip it out and try again!! LET"S GO GIRLS YOU CAN DO IT!!! HOORAY!! LOL
