Sew Powerful Purses #350-351 (for 2025)

2 more purses finished for the Sew Powerful Sew-a-thon and fundraiser.

Still fundraising through the 30th of September, so if you would like to help fill these purses with hygiene items for the girls in Zambia, it cost $10 per bag. Please go HERE to make a donation in my honor by September 30th until midnight Pacific time. Thank you so much! 

I love these scrappy purse flaps! The one on the left has a scrappy pieced background and I added an appliqué flower over it. The one on the right is a 4-patch Posey quilt block (or Easy Stack as some call it too) that I set on point and added scraps all around it. I need to play with those Easy Stack blocks when the Sew-a-thon is over. 😉

Sew Powerful Purses #289-294 (for 2025)

Daughter gave me 4 red Starbucks aprons that were abandoned at her store. They can wear red aprons at Christmas time. I turned them into purses. I actually got 2 purses per apron. I am showing 5 of the aprons here. These were fun to make. I even had some long scraps of cups of coffee that I sewed into the 3 purses below.

3 purse flaps with Starbucks logos and additional scraps. I pieced together the apron neck straps from 4 aprons to create 2 straps for the purse on the right and left, the middle purse I used webbing strap. 

Apron pockets made front pockets. I added those embroidered flowers there to cover up a few holes in the pocket bottom.

Scrappy flaps for the purses without Starbucks logos.

I enrolled in the Sew Powerful Sew-A-Thon to raise funds so schoolgirls in Zambia Africa can have the feminine hygiene supplies they need to attend school all month. I make purses to hold the supplies as a special gift for a girl living in poverty. Together we can help keep girls in school! There is still time to donate through September 30, 2025. It takes $10 to fill each purse with the monthly hygiene supplies the girls need to stay in school all year long. So if you haven't donated yet, please consider at least a $10 donation to fill one purse. Click here to donate or use the QR code below. Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!
