UR Priceless!

This was a fun project!  Thanks to Katherine (our Priceless hostess) and Madame Samm (cheerleader extraordinaire and pattern maker).

I made four 2 coin purses. I was the lucky winner of Madame Samm's coin purse kit and it is one that I finished:  I thought adding the ribbon and button was just what it needed to be perfect.
 
My second finish is with Ghastlie fabric. I just love the Ghastlies and knew I wanted a coin purse featuring them. The next two photos are the front and back.

 
I picked fabric for 2 more coin purses, one "dressy" and one fun. But I am writing this post on Nov 2, just before heading out to the airport for a 2 week vacation. They are not finished. I need to sew on the handles. I am not sure if I will have internet access that will allow me to upload the photos if I finish on time. I will try........I am bringing them with to finish. This photo shows the fabrics I chose.


I forgot to do a giveaway last blog hop, so I want to make sure I do one this time. It will be some fabric.....I'm not sure what but I'm thinking Christmasy or wintery....... Just be a follower and leave a comment. Be sure to visit the rest of the Hop.The entire schedule is on my previous post. Todays schedule:
