UR Priceless Blog Hop

November 9, 2012 85 Comments

Today is my day in the UR Priceless Blog Hop! A big THANK YOU to Madame Samm and Katherine for putting this hop together.

Here is the first frame purse I made, using Madame Samm’s pattern– great instructions and the shape of the purse is adorable! GENIUS!

I am in love! The size (3” frame) and shape make you smile.


Unfortunately, this was the only 3” frame I had on hand. I would have made 10!

One of the cutest things I have sewn !

I couldn’t stop at one and I used a few other frames purchased a few months ago. I drafted my own patterns for these.

I think you have to make a few until you find the perfect shape and size.

 

I did not press the seams at all – I should have done it. I was lazy!

The hand stitching part  (attaching the purse to the frame) was the hardest part for me -it took me forever!    I broke 3 needles working on the first purse. But it wasn’t my fault! Bad needles! But at the fifth purse I started to like even this task! Practice is good!

With so many beautiful fabrics and  frames available, imagine the possibilities!

 

My hubby liked them a lot. I think he was about to say he would like one for himself!

I have gifts for my sisters! And the little one is for the enjoyment of 2 year little fingers!

    First, I want to tell you how wonderul your background quilt is. You do such amazing work and I love following your blog. Great little purses! The blue/green polka dot is my favorite and I thought the frame was neat. I also like the bright red knobs on some of the other frames. Thanks, Geta.
