Default Some of the jeans bags I have been making

I have been having a blast making jeans purses/totes from our new Goodwill store that just opened. They have such a Hugh selection, and I found over a dozen pairs, many with great embroidery and gem details, and look brand new! Most were $6.99-$7.99 each! I am selling them for $35.00 at a craft fair next month, along with lots of other purses and totes of various patterns. Most have inside pockets, some made from the matching embroidery details on the legs I used for pockets. Most have fusible interfacing on the lining for strength and body. All have key clips and matching tissue packet covers, too.

Wish you luck, too! I don't have any advice, as this is my first, too!! I have nearly 60 purses finished, along with 50 tissue covers and a few other bits and pieces, and most of my purses are all priced at $35.00 for the jeans bags, and $45.00 for most of the others. I'm a bit nervous, as I have a lot invested in these and really need to sell them to justify the expense, plus, what will I do with all of them of they do not sell???

All your purses look very well made, the stitching looks perfect! Your choice of fabrics is right on; beautiful, and tastefull. So don't be nervous, you did a beautiful job on them!
