The zippered pocket on the wallet was just something I came up with. I've made several purses from patterns and a couple of wallets from tutes. Once you do it a couple of times you learn the ins and outs and dont need a patttern. On the wallet I used a salad plate to make the curved flap. I'm always trying to find something new to sell in my little shop. I think this one might be a keeper.

So creative and trendy looking!
The finished bag and wallet do not resemble placements at all. |
Wow - that is so nice - looks very expensive. Did you use a pattern? Would love to know how you did this.
|
wha a great job
|
Wow, are they great especially that little purse
|
That wallet is awesome... don't think I would ever be able to make one of those without a pattern. Great Job!

Those are very nice. Look expensive. I have got to try that.

thpse are great looks like something a boutique would sell. what a great sewing job.
|
What a beautiful way to use placemats. Did you create your own pattern for these? If you did would love to see a tut on making them. They are fabulous. Great job.
|
Very, very nice. Love them.
|
you are very resourceful
|
You seem to be avoiding the question about a tute on this :lol: We are all waiting. Let us know if you do one would love to try this-I bought several placemats that I was just going to do bags on but your "set" is much nicer. Please pm me if you get tute up - I dont want to miss it!!! Thanks Cheryl :D :thumbup:
|
I agree that they look like boutique bags!
|
Awesome! I could only wish to have that kind of creativity.
|
Love them both. People are going to ask you where they can buy one.
|
LOVE them!!!

Professional with a capital P !
