If this hop would have been
Big, Bigger, Biggest,
I know that I would have
never been able to pull of any project.
(I kind of lost my momentum for a bit
or maybe this project started it up again)
But quite thankfully,
it is the Small, Smaller,
Smallest Bog Hop
Hosted by Carol of Just Let Me Quilt.
I didn't have a hard time
thinking of what to make for this one.
I pulled out a sewing book
of mine called
Sewing Pretty Little Things
by Cherie Lee and a few of my favorite things.
Fun Fabrics, which just happen to
have Darth Sugar Skulls on it,
and some beautiful Aurifil threads in 40wt.
and 12 wt. of my favorite color as well.
Aurifil #5006, which I do
believe is the color of my living room.
Inside is a cute little clutch purse.
I slightly tweaked it a bit
to work with what I needed and got
this.
It is a zippered clutch that folds in half.
I enlarge the pattern a bit for it to
fit the zipper that I had on hand.
I used cork for the top decorative part,
and added straight stitching with Aurifil 12 wt.
for added detail.
I just adjusted my machine
for a longer stitch.
It works out beautifully each time.

I like to pick up different little elements
at the craft store when I go
and I saw a set of metal inspirational saying
in the scrapbooking department.
I totally cheated and sewed it on
my machine with a wide zig-zag stitch.
It fits just the right amount of make-up
and brushes in it.
