Pink Purse

A few weeks ago I was asked to help celebrate a fellow blogger's 40th birthday.
Mamarazzi is some kind of special and I admire her a lot.
 So, of course I was more than willing to get her something for her birthday.

In fact, I had just bought 4 different purse patterns (great sales and I couldn't pick just one)
I thought I would make her a purse in her favorite color, PINK!

I used the Craft Apple Tailored Bag Pattern for her purse.

I think it turned out great!
See:

Front of the bag.


Back of the bag. It has a HUGE pocket back there with a magnet closure.


The inside of the bag has two pockets and a swivel/ring closure.


I had enough left over fabric to make a matching key chain.
We made these for Super Saturday last October and I loved teaching it and making them!
I used this pattern.

I think they both turned out great!
I really hope she enjoys her gifts from me.
 I loved sewing these.

In fact, I'm going to make myself the same purse, only add more pockets inside and a cell phone holder up top. Just like the diaper bag I made from Craft Apple.

Totally go see what else Mamarazzi got for her birthday from some of her best bloggy friends!
And wish her a happy, but late, birthday!
She truly is an amazing woman!
