My New Purse


This is the new purse I made myself from an old pair of jeans and some scraps. I have been wanting a new purse, but didn't want to spend any money on one. I used the Perfect Bag pattern by Linda McGehee. I embellished it with fabric, ribbon, and yarn scraps. It was the first time I tried to use corded piping. It didn't come out right, but it doesn't look bad. I made a makeup bag to go with it. I love this technique for embellishing. I did it to my denim jacket a couple of years ago and still get compliments.
