You guessed it! Talking about sewing today! I can't help it! I'm totally in love with this clutch I made on Friday night.
It was meant to be a Christmas gift for my goddaughter, but immediately after I finished it, I couldn't part with it! Turns out, that was meant to be because I used the orange strictly because that was her favorite color...WAS being the key word! Ha!
But I'm not too heart broken! I mean hello...I wanted to keep it anyway! Hahaha! I love the color combo...but those gathers!! Uggh! LOVING! As you probably guessed, this is my first attempt at adding such a detail to anything I've made. I've done ruffles before, but haven't quite mastered the technique. But this clutch...uggh...LOOOVE. Yay me!
I used this tutorial at Noodlehead for the clutch & the instructions were great! I did my own spin on a few touches on the clutch, but overall it's her tutorial. Did I mention how much I LOOOOVE it?? One fun fact on this clutch...the zipper is older than me! This past summer I embraced thrift stores for sewing notions & fabric! It's amazing at what you'll score!!! $0.49 for that vintage beauty!!
Aww...look! Still sew cute while at work too!!
