A few weeks ago I made the leap from my mending and button sewing skills to hemming a pair of pants (thanks, mom!). This past weekend I took it a bit further and sewed a purse! As you can see from the picture, the seam along the opening is not perfect, but I'll get there eventually. I'm just happy it resembles a purse at all. I spent an entire day on the purse by creating my own pattern and following instructions from a beginners sewing book. At one point I had to remove all of my stitching and start over. Needless to say, when the purse was complete, I was elated. I am one step closer to my dream of being a master quilt maker. One step at a time...
