Several weeks ago I recieved this bundle of batiks from Island Batik to work my magic on-was I ever excited!!!!!!! And look at that top fabric, it was as if they really knew me as I love purple/blue fabrics. I knew right away what I would do with that one and the third one. You ask what...
A purse for me of course!! I absolutely love working with Island Batik fabrics. If you have not checked them out you should, such beautiful prints!
This bundle contained just a few of all they released this past week at Market. I came so close to going to meet them but I had plans already to go to MQS in Iowa during that time.
I just happened to have an iron on stud butterfly in the perfect colors for it too. I just love my new purse and so glad to start using it now that the fabric is released.
And the inside of the purse...
A close up of the beautiful fabrics with their name and number. Thank you Island Batik for your generosity!! Stay tuned as I have more plans for the rest of the fabric :-)
I will be linking up with several of the linky parties on my left sidebar. Don't forget to go check out all the inspiration at these parties.
That bag is super cute! I love those colors too! Love the butterfly- such cute idea!

Aren't you lucky!! What a perfect project and it reminds me that I should get my iron out and perk up some of the bags I've been making!
ReplyDeleteI love your bag! It's perfect for the Island Batik fabric!
ReplyDeleteYour bag is lovely! I once made a purse out of batiks and can't tell you how many compliments I received. Get ready for the compliments to come poring in.
