Well I had lots of scraps leftover and I made two little table toppers OR two square baby quilts OR Two quilted squares! Well what was I going to do with them? On one quilt I had placed the squares at an angle. I quilted one with meandering and swirly leaves and the other one I quilted with ribbon quilting. They were pretty, but not very useful.
It was about 39" by 39".
It covered the top of a card table!
Wasn't very useful to me...
So I cut them up and turned them into purses....
Have you ever made a small quilt that just didn't have a use? You can cut it up and make it into a quilted purse or bag!
I did it with this one too! This one is for sale at http://www.craftysewing.com
It was made from the mini rectangular quilt below.
I am working on another quilted purse made from a small quilt. Anyone recognize the fabric? It was from the 2010 Hoffman Challenge. Nope! I never entered it in the challenge. I hope to finish the quilted purse this weekend! If I finish it, I will post it next week on Hodgepodge Patchwork Tuesday.
Thanks again for following along. Leave a comment if you have ever made a purse out of quilt or would you like to do this in May?
