It's Friday, it's Eid and it's raining! Sew, what better way to spend my time than a little project. I bought this fabric when I was in Texas last year and just never got around to doing anything with it. Any guesses on what I decided to make with the fun fabric? I bought two meters of each and wish I had splashed out more for the cording. I only made one mistake along the way which was not fussy cutting the ornament strips the first time. And after a couple of hours of sewing here is my new Christmas handbag.

You are too cute. I do love that ornament fabric and the fact that with sewing you can start and finish a medium sized project in a day!
Thanks for stopping by! The more the merrier. That is a fantastic bag!! LOVE the fabric!!
that's cute! i need a purse like that. or at least the pattern? what's fussy cutting?
You know "fussy cut" may be a quilter term but it just means when you want to get a specific pattern out of the fabric. ie the pointy ornaments versus the round ones in this instance.
LOVE IT!
Love the new bag...that is one of my favorite sewing projects...handbags.
