fabric flower clutch!

arts 149



On Saturday, my mom, my sister and I sewed all afternoon! (Are you starting to see a pattern going on here? ....*no pun intended!*) Anyways, I decided to make a little clutch that I could use to jazz up my spring wardrobe. It's far from perfect and I should have followed a pattern, but I think I have some kind of aversion to patterns! Ha ha! Call me a rebel....

I have discovered that I love putting fabrics together! I loved chosing the brown and green houndstooth for the outside and a vibrant coral for the lining and fabric flower! Fun.

...now I just need to sew in a snap to keep the flap closed and it's ready for a day out!
