I made this little purse this past weekend and am pretty happy with it. I used the free design from http://www.stitchingart.com for their new promotion. I love the design! I decided to try the snap closure on this purse and it works great, although I think I cut the pieces of measuring tape too short LOL. Not bad for a first try though!

The photo is lovely but the purse is even more beautiful in person! Great job!

Thank you Sharon! :-) Joyce

Nice work. I have always wanted to try the measure tape bit but haven't.

This is so pretty, thank you very much for presenting

Looks great. I bought the Measuring tape and it did not work for me. Hugs Yvonne

Yvonne, I almost gave up myself, but stuck to it. The hardest part is getting the length correct, and I think I made mine a little short. Also, be sure to have the indented curve on the outside, which seemed wrong to me, but it works! Give it another try! Joyce

Joyce, how do you make an extended curve on the outside?

Will have to give it another go. Thanks

This is lovely. I am constantly amazed at the wonderful ideas that cuties come up with!! Well done.

This is very nice - so you actually cut your own pieces of measuring tape to use - so you must enclose them? How I wished I had you buy my side to explain how to do this - it is very interesting.

Sehr gut gelungen,gefällt mir
