Your daughter will like it...and use it...knowing that her mom took the time to shop for material and a pattern, to plan it, and to sit and make it. They are beautiful!! Daughters use things moms make. You are way too hard on yourself. You did excellent work.
|
I think it's pretty, and she might like it!
|
I love this purse/tote. You did such a good job.
|
I like it. It is different than the usual bags. Could you applique something on it to give it some more color?
|
I am very impressed by your purse. IMHO, it is very understated (my taste) but could be accented by a pin, beads, or other adornments. Personally, I would keep it subtle, and stay with the color line. Could you share the pattern source? Thanks.

I love it... my address is....

Your post is pretty funny....but, I have a daughter that is super fuzzy about what she likes and what she will use.....if she is honest, couldn't you just ask her? If not, donate it somewhere. Bet a teen in the Foster program would be thrilled with this. It really is a lovely bag......it needs a loving home....:)
|
we are our own worst citics im sure shell love it if not then donate it
|
It is truly a lovely, unique purse that could be classified as "Designer". I absolutely LOVE it and I seldom buy purses because I am so fussy about them. 4 years ago I bought a red purse, paid a little more than I normally would, and I am still carrying it daily. It has become my 'signature handbag'. It is starting to look 'almost new' so I am very fortunate that it has lasted this long. I fear I will be facing a delimma soon when it becomes too tacky to carry.
Anyway............long story short (I must be lonely for conversation) the bag is gorgeous and someone else will LOVE it, maybe even your DD. |
That bag is very unique. Lovely colour. Hmmmmm if you really don't like it.....................well maybe I could take it off your hands LOL!!!!!!! Don't be so hard on yourself.
|
You did an amazing job, bet she will like it!
|
it's awful....(lol) but I'm willing to take it off your hands and I promise to put it to good use!
|
you did a great job on it ,I think that she will like it.
|
You are too critical of your work. I think she will love it.
|
I think you should let her decide if she likes it. tell her if she doesn't she can help you pick out something she would like. You might be surprised.
|
Allow me to send you my address...it's beautiful!
|
I like it. If you have no idea what to do with it.... donate it to a charity auctio for a worthy cause.
|
I would give it to goodwill.
|
Why don't you give it to her with a coupon to exchange it for something else you'll make in the future? She may just love this bag. Sometimes we get sick of looking at something we've worked on for a while.
|
You can always send it to me LOL!!! I love it

BUT... you put so much work into this bag! It would make a great weekend bag. I would maybe make something smaller, or even buy a little something and put inside of it for a surprise and let dd decide what she will do with it. She might plan a trip if you give her tickets to something or gas money :thumbup: I looked inside and saw all the love :) |
You did a great job on this purse and it has so many wonderful places to put things. You could make or purchase something your DD wants but also include the purse. When you travel or shop great bags can be very helpful.

I think you should sell the pattern! It's a fantastic bag!
Have you seen some of the bags in California on the arms of the "elite"? ;) |

Several people have suggested that I add a little somthing for color and I am going to give it some serious thought. Maybe scour the consignment shops for some type of pin that will stay with the 'fan' shape? I did not use a pattern, the pockets on the front and back are just one half of a dresden plate, quilted and bound. I just winged it from there!
|
I like it! You do great work, and it is unique. I'd buy it.
|
I think it is a really neat bag! If you think she would not like it, why not try selling it? I really like the colors you have used and the size. And your sense of humor is great! LOL!
|
Not knowing your DD, it's hard to be certain, but even if it's not her style, she'd have to admit it's beautifully made, and so upscale and current looking, while also having the advantage of being a color that would go with everything. It's really special looking, and functional, as well. If your daughter carries it once all her friends will freak out when they hear you made it. Don't be surprised if you start getting calls for orders!
|
I love it...stylish and simple. I am the kind of person who likes a bag to be subtle and fairly "dressy". Totes on the other hand can be a bit "wilder". I think some of the heavily patterned/coloured bags limit the times you can use them...but that's just me. Anyway, I think she will love it.
|
IMHO, this well made and well thought out bag could use more color. If the construction allows, perhaps a vivid raw edge applique of her name? On the other hand, perhaps it is perfect for your sister as it is.
|
The bag is unique and beautiful! Let her decide!! :)
|
leave it setting around, and let her see it, before her birthday. no comment on who it's for, and you can get her reaction. give it, if she likes it.
i think it's beautiful. |
I would bet she would like it. If she rides a bike this would be a great bag. Or if you are shopping, alot can fit in there.
