    Default Practice handbag : happy birthday to me

    I had some leftover fabric that I just loved and just didn't know what to do with it. Saw a Pinterest post on a rag quilt handbag and thought .. That looks easy although I never have made a purse. 19 five inch squares sounds simple enough. As I decided to rag or not to rag, I decided not to rag. Made the bag then realized I had to add a lining. Never done that before. Then didn't like straps for handles and decided to try using 1/2 inch pool tubing... Never did that before. So after a lot of never dones I finally did them all. Thanks for looking!

    "Never dones---" lead to lots of success and new techniques. Your lovely bag proves that. I like the great finish.
