Thanks to Bevintex for her inspiring purses (to be found at OREGON PATCHWORK) with the little flowers on them. I bought the pattern on Friday and tried one yesterday, but misread the instructions and stuffed it up. I wrote to Bev explaining that I'd done something wrong. So this afternoon after being out with Mum I sat down and did another one realising where I had made my mistake. I wrote to Bev and told her my mistake and that I'd post my black and white purse. Here it is, I've been a bit pre-occupied watching Outlander - what a great series. Love Chris<br /><br />

<br /><br />
P.S. I must admit, like Teresa (queenofhearts) I too would prefer the zip to be placed lower down. By the way, I didn't put a pull tag on mine. Made in the 5x7 hoop.

I knew you could do it and it looks perfect. Now you must make one for the girls and for your Mom.

Ohhh! I like your colors. I especially like your placement of the top petal fabric. Well you did well on all the placements, very nicely centered. This would look very nice in my purse.

Love this Chris and the colors. I wonder what my husband would do to me if I bought another design. He always talks loudly and gives me the riot over a purchase.

Love the different colors. So glad you made it too.
Glad you told the owner I was not sure how to get a hold of her. I wanted her to know how much fun we were al having with this. She did a great job. Which size did you do?

Chris is talking about the bags I made, I am in no way the owner and make no claims on this design, just another cutie showing my project

Hi mgregg01, yes Bev is right I bought the pattern from OPW and I do not know who the digitiser is that did this bag. I was so inspired by all the bags Bev made and that is why I bought the design. The people who have made these are all doing a grand job. Love Chris

AHAH! I can see it more betterer now!!! :-)

It looks interesting but, you know me, I dislike in the hoop designs..... they always seem way too complicated for my brain to wrap around them when there is nothing I can't make in the old fashioned way.

I love your colour choices and I do love stipple!!!

BTW.... I too, thought Bev must have created it, by your comments in above post, (silly me), you just wanted some input on making them. :-)

xxxxxxxx

Thanks Meg and I love making in the hoop things. Yes, I was just thanking Bev for the inspiration to make these purses. Hope you had a good night bowling. Chat to you later. Love Chris
