Made By You Monday: Hobo Slouch Bag by Ali Foster
I'm participating in my first Made By You Monday. Made By You Monday is hosted by Skip to My Lou and I have gotten so much inspiration by looking at all of the posts over the last few weeks that I wanted to join in as well.
I cut this out a few weeks ago so when I sat down to sew on Thursday afternoon I was able to sew it up in an hour (I timed it because I knew I had a little over an hour from when I started to when I needed to leave to take my youngest son, Jacob to t-ball practice). It goes together easy and I love this pattern as a purse.
I bought the fabric almost two years ago when I decided to start sewing again. I have no clue who it was made by, I was new to all of that. I do know I bought it in a great quilt shop in Wilmington, NC where DH and I were taking a weekend getaway. I bought it because my mom is a breast cancer survivor (14 years in April) and I love all things with the pink ribbon. I think it made a cute purse don't you? I wish I had a little more of it to make some purse accessories (sunglass case, cell phone case), but I don't. If I ever see it again I will buy more though.
The pattern is by Ali Foster who I first found on etsy and bought a lot of her patterns. I have made one other purse, but have most of her patterns. I can't say enough about how great these patterns are. Ali Foster also has a shop separate from Etsy along with a blog.
