Crafting (not quite) disaster

Old purse


(old, grungy and way too small for all the crap I keep in there).

I tend to tuck all my receipts into my "craft Purse" and this one just isn't big enough - It must be 3 years old or more, so todayI decided to make the new purse.



A bit of selvedge, some plastic and fabric and voila!!! (or not)



OK , So I can live with the fact that it looks a bit like a toiletry bag - but I hate the whole zipper bit and I am not happy with the artfully angled top corners (they are not artful at all, all those layers of plastic mean that is as far as I can turn the corners out).

Blah !


Mind you - the Teflon foot made that top stitching a breeze.
