Scrappy Clutch by 'From an Igloo'
It took a lot longer than expected but I made two scrappy clutches today as found on From an Igloo's great tutorial here. I thought it was really cute and a great way to use some of the fabrics I still have lying around. I didnt exactly use scraps as such, more fabrics that I've been dying to use for a while and now had the perfect excuse :)
My reason for making this was that I have a pink (!) plastic bag for my sewing for at work and on the go and I really dont like this bag. Enter cute button fabric that I bought a long long time ago :) So what do you think?
I lined it with purple polycotton which I had leftover, and it also has a purple zip. I didnt use the fleece like she said but simply because I didnt have any, so it's only cotton. I also made a little felt bag for my scissors out of cat felt I had lying around and had never dared to use.
Yes I had to tweak the colours in the photos a bit to show the design better as the flash took most of it. I also made a small bag for spare thread, also from the same cat felt.
So this is it, the whole pack for my on-the-go sewing :) The needle book, scissors, and thread, all in my handy new clutch bag. Yes I am pleased :)
Oh yes, I also made one for my mother's birthday which is soon but as she reads this sometimes, I cant show you just yet... So psssttt! ;)

Very cute! Thank you for linking to it!
ReplyDeleteI love the cat felt!! Found you through Something I whipped up Monday, and I'm following you now to see what else you do with your fabric stash this year!! (I'm trying to use things up this year too!!)
ReplyDeleteI love love love that cluth. I would use that clutch as just a purse as well. I have alot of my sewing thread and ribbons in plastic ziplock bags so something like this would be super cute to carry it around in.
