GADGET GIRL PURSE



I tried out a new purse pattern (see above) that I found really easy.  Whenever I try a new pattern, I like to follow the directions the first time, just to see what the original should look like.  After the first run, I make changes I think will suit me better.

Here is my version of the pattern with fabric I bought on www.connectingthreads.com




I really liked all the pockets created on the inside of the purse.  It gave me lots of storage for little things like my cell-phone and keys.   (see pics below) I hate digging in my purse for those things.



There's plenty of room for my wallet, glasses case,makeup case and other miscellaneous items we always end up with.

I am really happy with the finished product and get lots of compliments on the purse. 

The only change I would make the next time is to use less fleece.  I would not use fleece to line the top of the purse because it makes it too bulky when you fold it.
Look for another post with another version and changes.
