I have just completed this shoulder bag for a work colleagues birthday gift. She asked for pink and a butterfly. Hope she likes it. I used curtain fabric which was of a linen type, and Osnerg.

The pattern is from a magazine called The Magic Patch and it was originally made in Denim with Red Oil Cloth sections together with red stripe patches. I inserted a fabric divide to give 2 pockets as there were none at all in the pattern. I appliqued the butterfly on my Janome 1100 and used crystals to enhance the design.
