Denim purse - this is the first purse that I have made. It was a challenge from our Sit and Sew group. We were told to use denim, and crosshatch the purse body and pocket, then put an embroidery on the pocket and front. It is lined with the wine colored fabric on the pocket top. The design is from Emb Library, and from the set vintage Jacobean fruits. I placed it a little low, not knowing how this was to be put together, but it will do for a knock about bag to carry. I could not get a good picture of the inside, but it has multiple pockets inside. I put a tab on the interior and outside so that I can attach the keys that always seem to fall to the bottom of the purse. Ready now for my next challenge.

You did great on your bag. The more pockets the better organized you can stay.

Beth, it turned out really nice - this looks like a great bag to use. I like the idea that you used lots of pockets and added the tabs for the keys.

First all love your workmanship you did great. Then there is just something about denim can't explain love it and the wine color. It would have been beautiful without design but the design cinches. *'s 4 ya!
