Sewing!

The last couple of days, I finally took my new-ish sewing machine for a spin. And look what I made! I'm so proud!



Pattern: Gathered Clutch, by Noodlehead.
The main and accent fabrics were purchased a while back as remnants from a little Bath quilting shop, which name I can't remember. The lining is repurposed from an old shirt.




The only thing I'm not terribly happy with are the zip tabs. I didn't manage to get them small enough and hidden enough, so they look a bit ragged, but if I don't pull them out too much, they don't show a lot.



Detail shot!


I made this myself! It even looks like it's supposed too! There is the tab problem, and the dividers gather a little inside, but it looks good. I'm so proud of myself!

I also have fabric for a handbag and a dress. Because starting slow and easy is for wimps. My sewing machine and I are going places, baby!
