What do you do with leftover scraps of fabric........


........you make patchwork hand bags, of course!

I had a lot of bits and pieces of fabric leftover from the patchwork tablecloths that I previously made, and decided to make them into these cute patchwork handbags. I used Simplicity pattern 9963, which includes two different handbag sizes. These are very fun to make and my new favorite party gift. And besides, who wouldn’t want a matching handbag and tablecloth? Very chic!

Kim they are beautiful, you must be wearing that sewing machine out by now! Your just like your Mom, I did so much of that when I was young, still do, but it saved lots of money making homemade items and people really love a gift from the heart. Thanks for sharing!
Love, Mom
