Have you always wanted your own Hermes purse? Couldn’t afford it? Well, here’s your chance! Visit here and download your own paper Hermes Kelly purse. It’s a little on the small side, and it might hold a pack of gum, but what the heck, it’s a Hermes! And won’t it look nice hanging off your arm… uh, finger!

If your office is drab and plain (like mine) then here’s a nice way to snazzy it up. Decorate your office equipment with fabric. How About Orange tells you how. She’s tried a couple of different techniques and found that the easiest is HeatnBond. At one time I found a link to make fabric folders. I’ll have to look for that again. Here’s an idea: set your new Hermes purse on the corner of your desk. Won’t your co-workers be jealous?

One can never have enough purses so here’s a very nice tutorial for an easy purse from Sew-Mad. I love this purse, and I’d really like to know where she bought her fabric. I love the red floral. I always seem to have black polka dot in my stash so that’s easy enough, but I’m definitely keeping my eyes open for this red or something similar. Let me know if you’ve seen this fabric or something like it.

Madmuffins and Woogiemonsters has a checkbook cover tutorialthat is easy to follow. Also check out her It’s a Cinch Book bag tutorial for a nice size tote bag…not too big, not too small. I really don’t like giant, oversized tote bags so this one is nice.

I really, really need to turn on the sewing machine and make something. I need to look through my things and see what I have in all those patterns and fabric that I’ve bought and then stashed away.

Until next time!
