Tada....
You knew it was going to be a bag! I did a few things different with this one. The first thing I did different is that I didn't angle the strips as much. This gave a wider opening. It also made it possible to put bigger pockets in it. This bag has 6 big pockets on the inside. I used a different stabilizer. I usually use tailor's fusible interfacing. This time I used craft fusible interfacing. It gave it the same stability, but not as thick.
I don't know if you can see in this photo, I didn't do straight quilting. Instead I used a decorative stitch on my machine and free motioned it. The stitch is a leave design to go along with the embroidery.
I found the best button. It has the same checked pattern as the material.
Sew Long for Now!

Oh it's so cute! Are you a purple girlly?
LOL, no. I just seem to have a lot of purple fabric and a lot of friends who like purple! My passion is green!
I'm a purple fanatic! LOVE it! The embrodiery really adds a special touch, Cindi.
Now...will this end up being your bag? A gift? Something for that sweet blogger down the road from you in Staunton? Just wondering...
LOL :)
lol Deb...I'm closer. I'm closer!heheehe
I love the detail. I enlarged the pic and can't get over how perfect the embroidery is for going with the flowers. Love it.
You and I were on the same wavelength this last week - trying to take a purse pattern and change it just a little bit. I really like the free-motion quilting on this purse better than the straight lines. Very fun.
Really nice purse, Cindi. Love the embroidery and the entire look of it.
