Default Gracie Handbag

Hello~

Made the Gracie handbag for my 'spring' purse. I had made the purse once before but thought it was a little on the flimsy side with just batting so this time I added interfacing (ironed it on to the batting) which helped stiffen it up a bit. I also added interfacing to the flap but now wish I hadn't because it made it a little too stiff.

One of the best things my husband bought me was an iPad2! I love that thing! It's so handy to have in my sewing room because I can look things up or watch 'how to' videos on YouTube if I'm not sure how to do something. Well, enjoy this spring morning and hopefully you're having better weather than we are in SE Minnesota. Still lots of rain and a few lingering snow piles.
