    Default Just Threads and modified mini Bow Tuck

    In June, our guild held a class in which we created a fabric using various threads and all of the machine stitches you've never used before. Just Threads provided all kinds of threads to try out. It was a lot of fun. The requirement was a fat quarter, but I made mine much larger because I wanted to make a purse out of mine. Here is the fabric of a couple of friends and me:

    I prefer a shoulder strap as opposed to handles and I like lots of pockets. Here is the modified mini Bow Tuck purse I just finished with mine:

    Gosh, Bow Tucks used to be so popular - first time I've seen them in a long time.

    Pretty fabrics you all made. Bow Tucks wow it's been awhile. Several years ago I made 12 of them for Christmas gifts with matching tissue holders. I love the looks of the bag.
