My New Favorite

 

I'll be honest, just about every time I make something it becomes my new favorite. The capricious nature of my favor cannot be denied. Every day is the best day ever and every bag I make is my favorite. So the title of this post is just a little tongue in cheek. But seriously: These are my new favorite. No really.

Little eco zip wallets are super fun to make. I get to use some of the gorgeous small uphostery fabric samples in modern prints that I'd been collecting for a while into super smart looking coin purses, IMHO. They'd also be great to keep your earbuds, business cards, medicine (herbal or otherwise), etc. Get two for everyone!

Fold-over Clutches

I have been experimenting with some larger pieces of upholstery fabric to make some fold-over clutches. I've seen them with buttons and magnets, but I chose zippers natch. I'm not so much a clutch girl -- I never quite know what to do with them when I need my hands for something else. But these might just win me over.

Zippity Doo Dah!

Somebody gave me a bunch of free zippers, so despite my resolve not to sew any more zipper bags for a while because I already have SO MANY ... well you can see my dilemma here. On one hand, I don't really need to make any more zipper bags. In fact, one could argue that if I keep making zipper bags we're going to have to get a bigger apartment to store them all. But on the other hand, free zippers!
