Zippered purse.

Remember the one from Brother site that I couldn't get right.
Well this is what I made with it once I thought it through properly.
I used a twisted tweed thread for the Squirrel head although to me it looks like a mouse.
Used a dark grey fabric off cut so it will be serviceable to be handled a lot. My phone fits in with room to spare.

Yep, looks like a mouse to me too, but, what a cute little design [don't know where this design is from] and your zip bag turned out so nice. I have been in to them lately. One way to use up a drawer of old and new zippers bought on clearance.

There are a ton of thread changes in that design and I admire your patience and skill in keeping them all in the right order! Very cute little case! Good idea to use a fabric that will stand up to use.

It didn't feel like a lot of changes. I always do a print out anyway.

Looks like a mouse to me, squirrels have big bushy tails. But whatever it is, it is still cute. And I like how you incorporated the heart ribbon with the design.

This is one of the cutest things I have seen for ages. I agree with another Cutie, it looks so like a Beatrix Potter drawing. You have made it beautifully.

This is adorable. I love that you have ribbon to match the design, very nice detail. Very nice work! Thanks for sharing with us. I don't know how I would start my day without seeing Cuties' work. Now.... I need to get off the internet and back at my machine so that I can show and tell as well!

Funny thing is the ribbon was on a card of 6 different designs at Christmas each 1 metre long for $1.50 a card. Had no idea what I would use it for just thought they were a bargain.

It is lovely. That's a lot of colour changes!

It could have been an illustration in Potter's "The Tailour of Gloucester", but she had the tailor and the mice sewing by hand.
