Here's a picture of the purses I made over the weekend, Monday and today.

Two Black and White from last week:

And it's dark picture but my favorite up to this point, if it wasn't already spoken for I think I may have just had TWO purses!

Thanks, Sandra, Murphy and Robbie! Murphy, To post a picture here, you need to first upload your pictures from your computer to a free hosting site. I happen to use Photobucket. You can then copy the HTML code under the Photobucket picture, then paste it in your message. It will then show in your preview, then you can click submit. One other suggestion: You might want to resize your photo to under 100 kb for easy loading, especially for anyone who uses dialup. I use Irfanview (free) for resizing, but I think you can also resize in Photobucket. I'd LOVE to see your bags! Julie

Searching for Perfect Purse/Handsome Handbag/Terrific Tote
Q

I think you need to consult a bag maker too. There are lots of them out there ...or find a tote bag that appeals to you and that is exactly what you are looking for on the outside and maybe partially inside...then have someone make all the extra pockets you need that will just slip down into the bag. Honestly, I cannot even imagine carrying the kind of purse you guys are talking about. When I go out. it's to shop or go out to eat , not for a weekend or overnight and truthfully, I can't fathom having to carry all that "stuff". I recently bought one of those as seen on tv phone wallets for $10 bucks and wear it on my belt.......It's the best thing since sliced bread and serves my purpose exactly. I'm hands free, I don't have to worry about aching shoulders or back..... I took all the straps off and just slip it onto a belt....I am just crazy about it......I can hook my keys to it or slip then into the cell phone pocket if I'm not carrying a phone............

Recycling old purses in the garden!

I have one wall in my atrium I can mount decorative hooks on and hang different things from. Doing some colorful purses would be a cool twist. I would line them with a heavy plastic bag with a couple of holes in the bottom for drainage and some gravel in the bottom. If they are fabric I bet you could spray them with a shellac or something to waterproof I a little more. Ihave seen several more pictures on pinterest using purses in the garden since I found this one. You know those grocery sacks you can buy for a few cents at the checkout, they are usually in lots of bright colors and they are laminated with some kind of protective coating. Those would work great! I bought one recently at Walmart that is a mardi gras theme, very pretty, now I wish I had bought more, I need to go to Walmart while it's still mardi gras time!

Your purses look very pretty. I really like the interior pockets. How do you get the orders for them? Just curious - don't want to pry, but thought I would ask :)
It is wonderful to "fill orders" and not sit with excess inventory.

Wow! You're speedy! It takes me an hour to whip out a Wonder Wallet! Are any of those purses meant to be Christmas gifts?

All these purses were made for my neighbor. She started this purse sewing business but it got out of hand for her as she has a out of home job too. So she talked to me and asked if I could do the sewing end, she supplies everything and sells them, all I do it the cutting and sewing.

I have her permission to sell (this is a custom made pattern buy herself) any I make on my own with my own materials and I have done that too. I'm also going to be making some of these purses for Christmas gifts.

I hope this answers all the questions.
