Snooty SIL's purse (SNS)

Here's the purse I've been whining about--I'm glad I'm done with it! I'm really pleased with how it looks. In case the pics don't show it, it's kelly green with yellow gingham lining and yellow/polka dots on the bottom. Although I wasn't able to get the flowers to line up perfectly on the straps, I did manage to get them *on* the straps. I had to use the polka dots on the bottom inside b/c I didn't like how the plastic canvas was poking through the gingham. I still need to (carefully) iron it.

(No, her name's not Laverne.)




The sew-a-long pocket:

And you know, I *was* thinking that! Too funny.

That's a great purse! I love the "L" right in the middle of the flowers. You did an outstanding job. It def rates in the snooty range.
