A couple of weeks ago she reminded me. I happened to have an afternoon off so I ran over to said quilt shop (about twenty miles from where I work, so forty miles from where I live) and registered for the class and picked up my materials. This is a picture of Peggy focusing on that perfect 1/4 inch seam allowance! ( hmmm ... I didn't notice that lady behind her had a tattoo around her ankle!)
We didn't get the project done there as planned, but most of it. And the instructor quickly walked us through the final stages of construction so we could finish putting it together at home. I knew if I didn't do it right away, who knows when it would get done. So ... here it is !!
Pockets the whole way around inside, fully lined, I'm quite impressed with myself. Vera Bradley, I may just be giving you a rest!

The pattern is by designer Penny Sturges for Quilts Illustrated. I bought it at a quilt shop. It's called ps026 Mini Bow Tucks. It was pretty easy.
ReplyDeleteAdorable purse! I am just going to have to visit my local quilt shops to find that pattern. Thanks!
