This is my second project from the current edition of Popular Patchwork. I used the remainder of a jelly roll I bought some time ago for the contrast stripes. I didn't go with the fastening in the magazine, but instead added a flap on two of the versions and a button and loop closure on the third.
I think these look cheerful and springlike. If only we had the weather to go with them....
I'm sharing this post at the following link parties:

Once Upon a Weekend
This blog shows my recycled denim creations, along with tutorials for items I have designed myself. I collect old jeans (a strange collection, I know!) and cut them up to make bags, purses, animals and other items of varying sizes and shapes. I then sell these to raise money for weomen and children in the town of Utange, near Mombasa, in Kenya. I help women to set up their own businesses and am supporting the building of a new school for disabled children.

Very nice - I like the flap version - does it have a snap or velcro or anything? The accent strip on either side of the patchwork is a nice touch :)
