Anne handbag

Hi Everyone!!

 The first bag that I’ve finished sewing in the month of June is the Anne handbag. The pattern is from Clover and Violet.


 I have had this pattern for a while now and I am taking the opportunity to try this pattern for submission in the 2012 Purse Palooza contest hosted by Sara at Sew Sweetness.  I also share this handbag at Ellison Lane Quilts as my entry in the Summer sewing contest.


 
  
I used Ruby fabric by Bonnie and Camille. The bright color print and the design combination are just perfect for the sunny day.  These fabric were bought from Sew Lux Fabrics & Gifts. They have a lot of fabric choices in their store and selected  fabrics are on  SALE currently.  


  
The handbag comes with a pocket.  Here is a view of the inside pocket.  It is big enough to fit in my coin purse and my cell phone. 


 Basically this is not the first pattern from Clover and Violet that I've sewn.  The first Clover & Violet pattern that I've tried was the Emma Clutch pattern.  Personally I would say that the pattern was well written and easy to follow.
Happy Sewing!!
