In my quest to clear some space in my office, I have set myself a challenge to work my way through my WIPs (work in progress). I’ve mentioned Anthea Willis’ #WIPslinky party in a previous post which is an additional incentive to get things done (come and join me!).
One of the WIPs for this month was to turn this pile of fabric…
…into these frame purses.
Ta-dah!
I have had the frames for months and the fabric (in most cases) for even longer. You know the ones. You bought them because you loved them but the right project never comes along. I bit the bullet, cut the fabric, and they are made.
What WIPs do you have lurking in the back of the cupboard?
Linking to Handmade Harbour’s Handmade Monday. Pop over and see what fabulous things everyone else has created.
I have never had the courage to try these purses. Are they easy to do??
They are fiddly but I think picking glue off my fingers is quite therapeutic! I use the U-handbag pattern.
I do like these purses, lovely fabrics
Thank you
Your purses are wonderful! Such lovely fabrics x
It took me ages to take the courage to use them!
Cute purses, I have far too many WIPs, I’ll get round to them – eventually!
I think you have found a great use for this material. Lovely bright and cheery 🙂
I definitely know those fabrics! Large quantities of fat quarters bought because I liked them and never quite sure what to make from them 🙂
The purses look great, I have some frames lurking in the drawer but can never decide what shape to make the purses.
