Special Request Purse #4 (and it's the last one)

This purse was quite the challenge and that's why it took so long to make.

It wasn't hard to make, the design was one I've used before

BUT

it was just deciding how to piece the striped body of the bag that slowed the process.

I was using scraps, which can also get tricky - 

kept running out of fabric so had to check my stash for more coordinates.....fun, fun.

Just nothing like taking several fabrics and sewing them together

to create a new, unique piece of fabric :)

I'm so glad I took my time because I'm very happy with the results!

Time to move on to Christmas projects, so I may not be back until the new year.

Enjoy this special time of year!
