Sew Powerful Purses # 440-449 for 2026

There are only a few more days left of the annual Sew Powerful September Fundraiser & Sew-a-thon. Please could you donate something, anything at all so that Sew Powerful reaches their goal to serve 25,000 girls in order that they can stay in school and get an education? The QR code and the link is at the end of this post. Pretty, pretty please, with a cherry on top?🍨If everyone donates something they just might make their goal. Thank you so much! You don't have to live in the USA to donate in case that is stopping you. Thanks to all who have made a donation already!

While I have acheived both my fundraising goal and my purses sewn goal, I am still sewing as many purses as I can through September 30th (before midnight Pacific Time) and accepting as many more donations that come my way too.

Here are 10 more purses that I finished. I love the painted stenciled background with added appliqué flowers or a butterfly on top. More scrappy pieced purses an another Sue Spargo appliqué bird. Sue is one of the Sew-a-thon sponsors this year, so someone could win a prize from her. 

I had a lot of white canvas material that I knew would be great material to use the the purses, but white is not only a bit stark, but can get dirty, so I painted the background of the flaps using some stencils and then added appliqué on top for a WOW factor. These and the others below were fun to create.

A Sue Spargo deigned bird and a scrappy flap with flower appliqué.

More painted stenciled backgrounds with appliqué on top.

Patchwork scrappy pieced flaps.

More quilt blocks, one with added decorative machine stitches.
