Denim Purse and Scarf to Match
 
1 Attachment(s)
Just finished my scarf to match my Denim purse. The scarf is made with Starbella from Premier Yarns. The pattern is on their website, only 8 stitches and a couple of hours. I made several purses without a pattern, from 2 1/2" strips with batting. Zig zagged together similar to the clothesline purses. The batting is a softer look and stitches up much nicer in my opinion. I also made the button from Fimo clay. Hard to find large buttons in the colors I need.

Love the bag and the scarf. I made one of the scarfs for DD. I need to make myself one as well. So easy and so cute. Nice job.

You are very creative!!! Thank you for sharing.

It would be nice if you did a little tutorial on how you put your bag together. Love the button!

i LOVE THEM BOTH!!! so funny I came across this post, Ive just learned how to do those scarves. They make up so quickly. :) Yours looks great.

Camille 11-16-2012 05:00 PM

Thank you all for your kind comments. I made several bags in different colors. I would love to be able to sell them, but they are very time consuming. I recently lost my job and hopefully I can sell some of my items. Just need to find a good source to market them other than Etsy and Ebay. Not ready for that at this time. I need to take baby steps as working full time all my life consumed me.

A clothesline bag is when you wrap 2 1/2" strips around a cotton clothesline and then shape the line into the bag. There is a pattern called "Bali Bags" that you can google to get an idea. I use the same 2 1/2" strips (Jelly Rolls) and wrap them in batting instead. Gives it a softer and flatter look which is easier to zig zag. I didn't use a pattern, just winged it as I do with many projects. I've never prepared a tutorial. I'll try to work on one.

Love them, very nice Job!

Aren't these scarves fun? I made some and can't seem to keep one for myself. They keep being sold.

oksewglad 11-18-2012 09:11 AM

Anything worth it is time consuming. Very nice!

Beautiful bag and scarf. Never saw this scarf before is there a pattern for it anywhere. Many thanks

roserips 11-18-2012 02:58 PM

I like the idea to make your own large buttons out of femo clay. Neat purse.

Go to the Premier Yarn website. the yarn is Starbella. They have the scarf pattern available for download.

Your bag and scarf are so pretty. Thanks for sharing.

Annz 11-18-2012 09:16 PM

Just lovely

KLO 11-19-2012 06:49 AM

Both your scarf and bag are wonderful! I went to the Premier Yarn site and printed out that pattern .... and several more I am sorry to say. Yeah, just what I need, more projects!!! Anyway, I also found this youtube demo (at the end of this paragraph) for the bag that I think is the same method that you used, maybe? I sure do like the idea of using the batting instead of the clothesline. I have made a clothesline mat and it is very stiff so the batting method should be wonderful for a softer bag. Thanks so much for posting this.
