Sew Powerful Purses #92-94 (2025)

These purse flaps are the ultimate in using small fabric scraps. Made by using all sorts of small bits of fabrics and fusing to a foundation fabric, layering with tulle and quilting to hold all the pieces together. I have done these before without tulle and heavily quilted them, which also works well. I have tulle in various colors, but they don't show up well in the photos. The purse on the right is a gold printed tulle, so you can see the print part, but not the tulle in the photo. These are so satisfying to make and use up scraps that normal people would have thrown away 😁. I especially like using scraps of cotton batik fabrics. 

Scrappy flaps using tiny scrap pieces with tulle over the top and quilted. The purse on right has a metallic gold print on the tulle.

2 blue print purses with home dec fabric and one upcycled denim jeans purse.
