My lovely & oldest friend made a few hints that she would like a patchwork bag, so this is what I came up with. Of course it had to have a matching purse, which I added a little hand stitching. It is made with various linen and cotton fabrics from my ever expanding fabric stash, which is now taking over the house.
My sewing machine does a lovely applique or blanket stitch
and some gorgeous satin stitches.
Have a lovely day, I did see a glimpse of the sun earlier, so hoping it keeps the rain at bay
Happy Crafting XXX

Truly gorgeous....lucky friend! Hope you and the family are all well xx
This is just gorgeous Paula, love the colour, the little heart and the detail on the strap of the bag. Really pretty, Can I ask what sewing machine you use Paula? I have been looking for a machine for a while but there are so many, and such a scale of prices. Thanks huni x
It's beautiful Paula. You really are a very talented lady. I wish I had half your expertise with the sewing machine.
so beautiful especially with the linen fabric.
This is so beautiful, I bet she will love it!

I’ve been looking for a purse pattern that I like for a long time now and I love this one so much. I was wondering if you will share or sell a copy of your pattern?
Hi I found this bag when searching for patchwork bag patterns. It is really beautiful. Would you be willing to share the pattern or even sell the instructions? I am just starting my patchwork and bag making journey this is for myself to help during stressful times.
