While cleaning in my sewing room , I came across this skirt. I found this awhile back at the thrift store on bag day . Its brand new, 100% cotton. I fell in love with the print and thought... ooohh, that would make a great purse or maybe a quilt. I have fabric in my stash that would coordinate either way and have several different wooden and plastic handles for purses. But, I just can't decide. What do you all think?

Purse or Apron. Very pretty!!

sorry...leaning towards purse too.

KatFish 01-28-2011 10:50 AM

I would make a purse out of it.

Raggiemom 01-28-2011 10:54 AM

I was thinking it would make a very pretty apron too. But if choices are purse or quilt, I would say purse. It is pretty fabric.

thequilterslink 01-28-2011 11:43 AM

that would make a great tote or purse, love it, great deal.

IrelandDragonQuilting 01-28-2011 11:44 AM

I vote for the purse :)

Well..... it looks like its purse so far. Someone mentioned apron as well, and looking at it again...pillows came to mind. :lol: Going to drag out my purse and pillow patterns now, haven't ruled out apron either. Oh boy!

TOTE!

piepatch 01-29-2011 05:05 AM

It would make a very unique purse. Think about it, you would have a one of a kind handbag..............guess you can tell I vote for the purse. I hope you will post a pic of whatever you make.

Dodee 01-29-2011 05:14 AM

Pillows to brighten things up for summer or a purse! Diane C.

Wow. I'd just wear it as a skirt!!!

Pretty for a summer purse.

craftymatt2 01-29-2011 07:53 AM

Purse for sure

Aurora 01-29-2011 09:18 AM

I would just wear it as a skirt. I wear lots of skirts in the summer. I find them more comfortable and cooler, and they don't climb up my thighs!

sunrise450 01-29-2011 09:26 AM

Purse or apron

Anotherday 01-29-2011 10:13 AM

I vote for purse....maybe a beach bag or summer tote?

dphelps 01-29-2011 11:25 AM

Ditto!

Quilt-Writer 01-29-2011 11:43 AM

I'm a water aerobic instructor. It would make a great tote for my swimsuit and gear. The material even looks beachy or poolish.

sewingsally 01-29-2011 12:56 PM

I vote for a purse

G'ma Kay 01-29-2011 01:30 PM

decky 01-29-2011 01:58 PM
