Sew Powerful Purse #35-36

Here are 2 more purses for the Sew Powerful Purse Project.

Purse #35~
This was a quilt block that I set on point and added some more strips around.
 Added buttons for some embellishments on the flap too.

I didn't quite have a large enough piece of this purple corduroy, so I pieced 2 pieces together and then sewed a ribbon over the seam. The ribbon made a nice decorative element and no one is the wiser that I had to piece the fabric pieces together...well except me and those of you who are reading this, lol!

I ordered some labels a couple of months ago and they finally arrived. I wanted a little something special under the flap for the girls to see, sort of a sweet surprise. I had to sew this one on by hand, since I had already completed the purse. From now on they will be sewn by machine.



Purse #36~
 
I had enough of this pre-quilted fabric to create on purse. The fabric has a different coordinating print on each side and is quilted together. So I added binding on top of the pocket, front of the purse and around the flap to cover the raw edges of the fabric. Inside, I zigzag stitched all the raw edges. 

When you lift the flap on this one, you can see the other coordinating print.
