First up, a purse. I thought I was making myself a bigger one, but um, no, it's actually smaller than the one I've been using; a risk you take when you make up your own pattern. It's cute though. I love when scrapbook supplies come in handy for other hobbies.

This is a library bag I made for Xander. I don't have an embroidery machine, so this is my improvised version. Xander's verdict is that it's a bit boring. He wants something on the back and smilie faces on the squares. I told him too bad. :P

He does however, heartily aprove of this wallet. In fact, I think he approves of it a little too much. Look at the obsessed love gleam in his eye. I caught him kissing it earlier. Who knew Xander's first big crush would be a wallet? I hope this isn't prelude to a love of money. I also really like the fake-out potiential with this fabric choice. "Cool! I have $50. Oh wait, no I don't." It's kind of fat, too, because yet again, I couldn't find a pattern I liked, so I made one up. This is my first attempt, but it still turned out cool, if not perfect.
