Using up fabric scraps Project 2

 Project 2 - Purses & Makeup bag

The next piece of fabric uses was actually 2 pieces quite narrow but reasonably long ,

Not the black print as this was too small for this project but the grey and small mauve print behind it.

The wider piece I cut into 2 lengthways and made 2 purses from it. This size purse I use for jewellery or gift cards, but they have multiple uses. 

The pattern I use is an all in one pattern. and I use it for all size pouches up to nightdress case size, unfortunately I have been using the same method for a couple of years now and cannot remember which YouTube video I first saw it. But if you check  Jean Truelove Quilting on YouTube, she shows you the pattern and method.

The 2 narrower pieces made 2 pretty little purses. The finished size is 10cm square, which will take a credit card but would also be lovely to give jewellery or other small gifts, or give money.

On one of  the purses I have added an embroidered hedgehog appliqué. 
.

The 2nd piece of fabric became a wallet size, and again would make a great gift wallet, small pencil case, or personal hygiene wallet, and on this one I added a fabric transfer. 



I also made another one the same size from the remaining section of a fat quarter.


I make many of these purses and wallets including Christmas fabric styles for gift and voucher .
Number two project done 
Back soon with No 3 .

Happy Crafting
