Last month I found some really cute Mason Jar fabric in a quilt shop near me. Of course I had to buy some of it! This week I made some little purses using the Mason Jar fabric. I had seen one of these small hand purses while I was out at the beginning of the month on a Shop Hop of quilt stores in my area.
I thought it would make a nice gift to give to my friend Cindy for teaching me how to use chalk paint. I mean, what better gift than something made with Mason Jar fabric?
The bags are about 6" x 8," not too big. They are lined on the inside and on the back side is a pocket. The bags are big enough to hold a cell phone and a wallet if you are just out running errands or going somewhere that don't need to bring a lot of items with you.
I saw the tied handle idea while I was at one of the Shop Hop stores and I thought it was cute. I just made the handle a bit longer than I usually do and then tied it in a knot. I added some lace and rick rack to decorate the bags and a ribbon and small charm that says "Made for you" to the zipper pull. What do you think?
