A friend asked if we could create an ITH purse-- like a hipster-- to carry a mini iPad or reader, etc. I played around this wkend and came up with one that fits my 7" Android tablet. But I'm thinking I might leave my heavy shoulder bag at home, and begin wearing these "body bags"...even thinking about matching some outfits and adding inside pockets...maybe a phone pocket on the back. ?..oops, it is already getting heavy! So easy and fun..can't wait til tomorrow. Seems a lot of us have caught 'purse fever

Cute, I like the jester. Do you sell your designs?

I don't. I've never done anything worth selling. The jester is leftover fabric from kitchen curtains.

Brilliant for all those who love hipsters/Lillian

Brilliant Idea. Nice bags. Love the Hipsters

Great job, love the material it is super. Bags are the fashion, all sizes many many uses. Thanks for sharing yours. Sandra.

Wish I had grand daughters--they'd be all ''decked'' out. Alas, no grandies.

Super cute bags! Joyce

Thank you..my head is full of ideas.

Excellent piece. It is exactly what I have been looking for. I purchased a 3 zip piece and it is too intense. Have not created it yet.

One step at a time! I have a large hoop, but embroidery can be done in small hoop and remainder sewn on reg machine. This was entirely ITH, because friend doesn't sew. Still, eezy peezy either way.

Very nice

Thanks.

I love the Harlequin ballet dancer fabric - it is just lovely. Great job on the purses and yes, our handbags are sometimes too heavy. Love Chris

Red ultra suede, the jester is my fave...dif jesters left to experiment with.

These are very cute and you have a novel idea with this instead of a purse. :)

Yes, the strap goes around neck and shoulder to allow purse to ride on hip...under jacket or coat....leaves hands free for touching all pretty things.

Great idea. My shoulders hurt sometimes because of a heavy bag. Do we really need all that we carry with us? These smaller ones are great. Love the jester motive
