Deb's Purse

Last month while my family was vacationing, my sister-in-law and I ran to Wal-Mart for forgotten items.  We happened to pass by the material section (I must to stop and look at any material I see) Deb saw this great pattern and asked me if she bought it would I make her a purse, of coarse I said yes!  As soon As I got home I went about trying to find what material I would use for the lining.  I was really lucky a couple of months ago.  I went to a yard sale and saw a couple of solid color table cloths.  I asked the lady having the sale how much she wanted for them and she said take what I want free.  i was shocked, I told her I would take them all so how much did she want for them.  She said really take them all and she picked up a trash bag and started putting the table cloths in it.  When I got home I could not believe how may she had given me.  The were not all solid.  I even made a skirt out of one of them, I will post later.  Anyway I digress, I fould in my stash of table cloths the greenish colored one above which I think goes great with the material Deb picked out. 

I used the pattern from Sew Momma Sew, for her April Bags.

Of coarse I cant make a puse without pockets. 

I gave my sister-in-law Deb the purse last weekend and she loved it.
