Here are photos of the two different watermelon Bow Tucks purses I made - which one do you like best? What do you think about putting a black button on the second purse? A watermelon pin or button would look nice but I haven't found any.

I think a black button would work perfectly.
Like them.

I love them both. Black button would be perfect.

Awesome!
They are both fun, summer bow tucks!
Yup, I agree with you...a big, black button would look great!

Making my mouth water! Maybe you could find a black teardrop shaped button.

SOOOO cute!!!! Love the watermelon theme!

Tooooo cute!

those are just darling, love the fabric

Beautiful.

They look good enough to eat.

Awesome! Go for the black button

those are great

They are both so fun

Super cute!

They are both so cute! I like the black button idea. If I had to chose one or the other I would pick the second one! I am partial to pink tho.

yummy!

Love the fabric, Great bags too.

I think you should cover a button. I found a large one at Hancock's Fabric and had never covered a button before, but found it to be very easy, and the button looked great. So much easier than running around trying to find one to work.

Awesome purses. Such fun fabrics! :thumbup:

Your bag looks great! Living in a small town I don't have a lot of choices in buttons and could never find what I was really looking for when I made these bags. I now buy the Dritz button covers that way I can use matching fabric for the button. Works a lot better for me. I don't have to wait until I get to town to get one finished. :thumbup:

Darling bags! Great fabrics! Black button would be good!

Beautiful bags! Love the piping on the second one :D:D:D

super cute ;)

super cute ;)

I like them both. Black button!

My question is where did you find the fabric and who is the designer? I love the purses and fabric.

delish!!

Awesome

A black button would make them perfect!

I have had the fabric for a couple of years now, but it came from JoAnn's - however, there is still watermelon fabric available online as I just bought a similar green from Equilter. The pattern is a Mini Bow Tucks which is available several places online. I added the flap (my own design) because I prefer the top more "closed"and secure than with a button loop there.

Darling to be sure!

So cute! Yes, the black button would be cute. Google decorative pins or buttons and see if you can find something.

Sewwwwwwwwwwwwwww cute!!!!!!!! Michele

These are ADORABLE! I love the green straps on the 1st one. Both are awesome!! :thumbup:

Here is the second purse with a black button on it (the only large black button I had). I think it looks good but will continue to look for something I like better.

Those are very cute!

Thanks for your reply. I have the pattern. I will try to find the fabric on line.

Great looking purses.
Black button for sure.

Blessings,
Sandi

Just yummy, makes me want to go get the pattern.

Both are very cute and I like the black button idea!
