I've been working my fingers to the bone
trying to get ready for the next Texas show!
Thought I would show you my purse project!
I love small purses,
ones just big enough for the check book and a small wallet
when shopping or selling from my booth!
when shopping or selling from my booth!
And I like something that looks vintage!
Hadn't found anything that fit the bill perfectly,
SO..........I decided to make me a purse!
One turned into 10! LOL!
Thats ok!
I'm gonna be selling these lovelies at Marburger!
They all have old crochet sewn on.
And they are washable!
Very important when carrying light colors for a purse!
Tell me what you think!
I haven't decided which one I'm gonna keep for myself yet!

Theresa, Theresa, Theresa! These are brilliant and gorgeous!!! I can surely see why you're having a hard time choosing. They are all beautiful but I think my personal favourite is that first one.
How cute are they!!!
So cute for summer, long white skirt........going to outdoor antique malls.....I can see it!!!
I love them all! I thnk my favorite one is the one with the coral colored cameo on it. I love cameos of any kind but that one really catches my eye. I wish I lived close enough to be able to visit your booth!
I think you should wear several at a time because they are just too, too gorgeous! That lace! I'm fainting with envy! Hope one of them is offered in your upcoming giveaway!
you are so correct! they are all unique and BEAUTIFUL- I could never decide!
Karen
Very hard to decide. I think I would have to choose by brooch. : D

I absolutely LOVE all of them and if I were you, I would be choosing not one, but at least two!!
Take care, Sue
Oh SO sweet...and I love that you put a zipper on them. Each is prettier than the next!
Jan
What a great way to use lace! I'm sure they will all get sold at your upcoming show!
Happy Sewing!
Debbie
Girl, these are just beautiful! Can't wait to see them in person. Great idea.
I just made my first tote bag. I was going to make my pottery teacher a pillow and she told me she wanted a tote bag. ???
But, I don't make tote bags.
Sure, you do!
Wow,I figured it out and it turned out great.
Believe it or not, she lets us use her vintage linens to roll impressions into our clay. I used some of the better ones for her tote.
I love the little zippers. These things are way classier than my floppy tote bag!
Rhonda
I love when beautiful objects are also useful and utilitarian! Kinda' like my husband!
Beautiful...so hard to choose a favorite!
What can anyone think? They're darling!! Will they come with the added jewels? Cuz those really make them. I'd keep the first one *winks* Vanna
How beautiful. Very hard to pick a favorite.
i'd keep ALL of them for myself...one for every day of the week and a few spares! (ya never know!) just sayin...
They are all so darling!! Here's the answer to your question about which one to keep; you keep whichever one doesn't sell. ha! But in your case, you might be out of luck!
Very creative! I'd break out the scotch guard and that would cut down on the washing. I like the look a lot! ~Mindy
They are ALL so pretty!! What a beautiful creation! Thanks for sharing!
Oh I just love your bags...I am a bag lady too! I am heading to Texas in a few weeks meeting up with friends (my first time) where will your booth be ? I would love to visit. I am making a special bag for myself as well...just in the first stages of it though..can't wait for Roundtop!
Joy
Oh, they're all so yummy! Such a tough decision you have. They will sell like hotcakes in Texas.

Girl you never cease to amaze!!!
I'm crocheting facecloths...do we ever stop?!!!

Oh Theresa, those are so pretty... I've been working on some little bags very much like those!!! Happy White Wednesday!!!
Theresa-Each one is lovelier than the last! I would have a hard time making a choice. GREAT job! xxoo Diana
I love them all! So pretty. These are going to sell out quick. I would have such a hard time picking just one. Thanks for sharing!
OHHHH I would have a hard time deciding! Love them, I'm partial to rhinestones so it would have to be one of those! Happy WW! Theresa xoxo
I am sure everyone will want one if you are using one yourself, that is the way it usually goes, I have sold scarves and hats right off my neck and head at shows LOL
Good luck
AMy
These are fabulous! So creative and beautiful....I'll take the first one please! :)
Sure to be sold out at Marburger!
:)
Theresa theses purses are so neat!! You have done a fantastic job on them and I know you will sell out!!
Blessings~
OMG Theresa...they are gorgeous. I don't think ten will be near enough. I can see every single one of these being gone before you even get set up!!! All your friends will HAVE to have one. You are so talented with a sewing machine, my dear friend!!!
sending hugs
These are absolutely gorgeous!! They are so very unique and creative. I think you need to make about 100 more for your next show!
Yes,yes,yes! So beautiful!!!!!!!
I.Can.Not.Believe.You.Sewed.Zippers! Girl I can't even sew a seam without stitchin' my fingers to the cloth.
New boots AND a new pocketbook...life ain't fair!
Deb
Love these. They are so cute.
~Heidi
I cannot decide wich one you should pick. You are going to have ladies standing at your booth for hours trying to decide! I bet you sell out! These are beautiful, very classy with just the right amount of frill. Love them! I hope to go to Maburger as I live in the DFW area but I have never been.......I will have to look for you!
Sherry
OMG! These are cute, cute, cute!!! You will sell out I will betcha!
Hugs,
Judy
Theresa....wow wow wow...those are wonderful.
Girl you have a hit I promise. What are you selling them for? I would love one.
Hugs
Becky
It is quite impossible to pick a favourite, they are all so pretty!
Theresa, these little purses are the CUTEST I have ever seen!!!!!!!!LOVE them. I'll bet you that you do not come back with a single one. AWESOME!!!!!!!

These are so sweet...I love them all! I know you've been working hard on them but you'd better make more...they'll be gone in a New York Minute!!
Those are just beautiful! Very hard to choose...maybe you should have one for every day of the week:)
I don't have a favorite because I love them all!
Your purses are wonderful. Love the vintage look and the lace pieces.
It's more than hard to decide, I would keep them all! I'm getting my sewing machine this week, don't know how to sew but I will learn, and I will make me one just like those, they are adorable, thank you for the inspiration.
Love
Ido
Those are perfect for Flea Market shopping! judy
I can picture one of those lovelies slung over my head and across my shoulder...they are JUST SO PRETTY!
I love them ! I love the old lace and the vintage jewlery , You need to offer them online. Very , very cute !
These turned out beautiful and such a great size. I'm sure they'll be flying out the door for all those shoppers there.
Still wish I could come and meet you:(
Kathleen
These are sooo cute! I'd have a hard time deciding which one I like the best..they are all too sweet!
I can see you have a big job deciding which one to choose, they are all so pretty.
Keep making them, they are sure to sell well.
For yourself, you need one for monday, one for tuesday...
xoxo

You have found a hidden talent!! Those purses are really cute. You will sell out in 30 minutes. Judy
These are beautiful!! Love, Love.
Thanks for stopping by to visit.

Oh my gosh these are gorgeous!!!! I wouldn't be able to decide either, but I'll bet they get snatched up right away at Marburger. Better make more......
you did a great job on details - it looks neat and very well done...
Oh my, how wonderful are these little pieces of beauty and coolness. I love the first one and the second oh and the third...
You better nab one because they will be gone girl!
Please link these up to my Studio Sunday... I love them
Blessings today
RE
Very lovely!! You'll wish you had 100 of those cute little bags when the show is over!!! You are a talent, girl!!
Thank you Sweetheart!
Love to you
RE
T,
I LOVE THESE!! I wish I could come to Marburger & buy one. I'm not sure if I can make it to the show this time. The kids have been so sick & it's put me very behind with class projects, kits etc. There is nothing I'd rather do than come & shop with you, Shelley & Theresa. I know you'll be a huge success like you always are, can't wait to see the pictures of your latest venue.
Lisa
Oh Theresa these are BEAUTIFUL....I especially ADORE the one in your 7th pic....!!!
I'll be in Texas again for the March Show but am leaving on the 29th....That will be TWO shos now where I've MISSED Marburger....HOPEFULLY later in the year my timing will be better.... :o) !!
I hope this time around to catch up with you at the Blog Party....Maybe you'll be wearing one of your new purses....!
Hope you've had a FABULOUS weekend....!
Cheers from 'Down Under',
Tamarah :o)
