Here are photos of the inside. I followed the pattern Mini Bow Tucks Purse. The inside has pockets all the way around. Really cool and very easy to make. I can use that plastic mesh in the bottom of both of these purses I have made. I put a snap in the lining instead of the flap and button that is suppose to be there.

JeanieG ... love the purse! The blue is such a good compliment to the FQ we are using. Well done!! I've got the Mini bow-tuck pattern ... just haven't made one yet.

QuiltE ... I'll have to look and see if the Grandmothers Compass is in EQ7 ... if not I can probably make one. This is what it looks like.

JeanieG - fabulous and functional.

QuiltE has been nagging/begging me to put up a progress photo of The Friendship Tree. The buttonhole stitch is a slow go but I worked on it for a while yesterday. The tree is now over 1/3 complete. Each leaf takes me between 30 and 40 minutes to outline so there are 7 hours plus to go just in leaves. Yikes. Here is the tree as of last night:

And a close-up of some of the stitching:

Next photo will not be until the outlining is completely done, no matter how much QuiltE whines.

Such great ideas-Jeanie love the bowtuck bag--I was thinking of making a bag as well. Nice color combo--but then blue is a favorite color. DHM cute birds. Like you I've had that pattern waiting to be sewn. Looks like you've found the perfect spot for it. mirabelle and g_59 great sewing bags! W4me lovely stitching on those hearts.

And mine is still waiting to be cut!

JeanieG ... thanks for the extra pics! Those ones didn't go fuzzy, maybe try the other again? Looks like a practical purse and loving the colours would make it one I would use constantly!

DHMom ... Grandmother's Compass is beautiful! Lots of challenge there with the curves!

DDamsel ... Not fair! I can't wait!!!!!!!!

DDamsel, DHMom and Anael ... maybe the three of you should have a challenge on that completion? and for the innovations you can do with the orphans?

W4Me ... absolutely spectacular!!!! Great colour matches for the floss to the fabrics. As for nagging/begging, it was all for your own good, for the praise, and encouragement to continue on!!! Typical accountant ... have it all converted into the #s and how long it will take!!!

OKSGlad ... not that you don't have a gazillion things to do ... and a trip to get ready for! All in good time!

oksewglad - thank you.

QuiltE - Thank you. With all the Aurofil thread I bought late last year, something was bound to co-ordinate. As to the accountant crack, was there a point?
