PR Handbag Contest


I completed a purse entry for the Pattern Review contest. You can read my full review Here. And you can see all my photos Here


I went a bit out of my comfort zone by using some leather accents. I had never sewn leather before - but it was quite easy. I do wish I remembered to increase my stitch length on the top stitching - but it is a minor detail and most would never notice it. I think this is only the third bag I have ever made - if you include the messenger bag I did several years ago. I find I quite enjoy making my own - and plan to do many more. Here is my first purse project: Piney Patch Design Purse ~ and the finished review .
