Morning Cuties, here is the Zipper purse I made for my friend Deirdre up in the Hunter Valley. I stuffed up the first one (the one pictured) and made another one which was perfect, but I forgot to take a picture. Anyway this one I decided to keep myself as it is still usable. The only thing I forgot to do was put the zipper (with tabs on the end) in a half inch from each end, so that when you sewed up the side seams you missed the tab! Doh! This one is a bit bigger too, so for all of my stuff in my handbag it's perfect! Love Chris

Love the fabrics and the bag looks great from here!

Thanks Liliana, yes, she loved hers. This one is mine as I stuffed it up! Love Chris

Looks great! If it wasn't for the occasional oopsies we wouldn't get things for ourselves..

Glad to see you post this again, I thought I was imagining things when I couldn't find it again.

You did a great job with it and it will definitely come in handy

Thanks Monika. Love Chris

Hi Chris, very pretty fabric in your purse!
I have the same blue fabric as your tablecloth, they were actually teatowels, but I made mine into 4 placemats, as I thought the fabric was not really suited to teatowels, and I have the maroon in the same print, also destined to be a tablecloth one day!
