When I first saw this on your instagram I fell in love with it! It's just the perfect little clutch and I love the touch of suede on the bottom. I wish I could sew something like this- I'm not sure I have the skills.
P.s. I nominated you for a Sunshine Award! http://thehippiememoirs.blogspot.com/2014/03/the-sunshine-award.html

It looks lovely. Loving the colours and textures. Glad to hear you had fun sewing!

Thanks Charlotte! It is all upcycled materials that I've had stashed away for years! That blue linen was once a dress I draped for class during my sophomore year!

Thanks Emma! And, you can sew it! It's not too hard, it's a bunch of straight lines, that's all! I read your post this morning! Thanks for the tag...I will be heading off to Arizona and will get onto it once we arrive home!

what a cute bag! its crazy how if you do it professional it takes out the fun but I think the fun does happen again it just takes time and being open to it.

You did a fantastic job! I love the colors and pattern you chose. 🙂

Thanks Erika! I most definitely enjoyed myself making this simple clutch, and if felt really good to be making something with fabric. Maybe next time I will be inspired to make some clothes!

Thanks Liz !!! The fabrics are all recycled materials! The blue linen was once a dress I made in college, the leather was a leather skirt I purchased from the local thrift shop, and the lining was once an apron top I made in my hippie days! Ha!

I just discovered your fold-over clutch pattern and had a 'eureka' moment. I've had my mom's red suede jacket, that doesn't fit me, for decades (It's about 60 years old), but could never bear to part with it. It's going to become a clutch! Thank you , thank you, thank you. I can't wait to get started. Yours looks wonderful.
