Rentry via Handbag

Well hello! For a long time I felt like I didn't really have anything to say, but now I can manage so here goes....

I agreed to make something to donate to a school auction, and here's what I came up with today. The idea for a burlap handbag came from one of my favorite magazines, GreenCraft. This magazine is a really quality publication, from the printing to the projects featured.



I liked the idea turning a free burlap coffee bag into something that I would actually be willing to carry. The pattern is free purse pattern that I made previously as a gift.



I love the side with the text. Love, love, love it! I am going to have a hard time getting rid of this bag.
