I had some bits of the brocade left from my bag, so I made an ITH zipped purse to go with it. Luckily there was one piece of fabric big enough to make the purse back. It is fully lined with no raw edges or visible stitching.

I've just seen these "in the flesh" - they are lovely.

I love all of them well done , they are nice and modern and the material go well together, some of our friends and family are lucky to have sewers in the family L SHERENE X

Just beautiful!

Beautiful job! My g'son is learning to sew and I've been letting him loose in my scraps to do crazy quilt squares which then turn into pot holders. He's working on a badge for cubs and he's quite pleased with his accomplishments...I am, too!

Love how you put the zipper on the slant to look like one of the seams

The lovely blue one was the only one in a reasonable sized piece. The rest were quite narrow strips.

Excellent beautiful and stunnig.Loved it

Love the purses to match

Beautiful :)

Fabulous work love the colors.

Beautifully done!

gorgeous love the colours too

Lovely set.

Just BEAUTIFUL! Love the fabric.

Lovely and elegant!

Yes, I noticed Sue. I was wondering why you had put the handles on the outside of the fabric instead of tucking them in between the outer and inner fabric. These look like new handles too, the fabric looks different to the one in your previous post. The little purse addition is gorgeous and sets it off really nicely. Love Chris

Upon closer inspection, I think the handles are the same. The picture is much brighter in the one above. Love Chris

The handles are the same. The lighting plays havoc with the colours. Without the extra interfacing, the lining was too floppy to trap the handles.

Sue you have created a great purse to go with the super bag. If your friend just stashed a few offcuts into her bag I wonder just what she comes up with when she gets larger sized pieces. Looks most posh for you
