I am so excited for several reasons about this little handbag that I just finished by Amy Butler. First of all I just really like the style, second the fabric is really special to me and thirdly I finished a project! I needed a purse for little outings that I take without the kiddos. No need to lug a mommy purse around (code for large to fit all the kiddie necessities) when it is just me going out. This little purse will allow me to just throw in my wallet, phone and keys to head out the door! As I mentioned the fabric is super special to me as it is fabric that my grandmother picked out many years ago to make a skirt for my aunt. We came across the skirt as we were cleaning out my grandmothers house and no one wanted it so I scooped it up. I did not want to loose the skirt so by cutting off the bottom I was able to maintain to skirt but yet have enough fabric for this little purse as well. I hope to hem the skirt up and save it for Charis to wear some day. I love being able to carry a little piece of my Granny around with me. It feels good to accomplish one of my projects. I seem to start a lot and finish not so much so I have new energy knowing that I truly can accomplish something in the pile.
