I just made a purse roughly based on Dorthy and Lois and the directions for the lining were more than helpful... for a look you can see the purse here http://jandrzoo.blogspot.com/2011/08/purse-clutch-type.html<br />I found the book at the Half price bookstoreThe Fall Creek Chicken Coophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01057221620620174749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6561146385820548849.post-72001619434284686492011-08-07T02:31:18.852+10:002011-08-07T02:31:18.852+10:00Beautiful - especially in that fabric.

I was erring to finding something with a vintage feel, but I may try just making it up in a modern fabric and see what it looks like. Thanks for reminding me about the book - you've inspired me to revisit it soon!Fionahttp://handmadebyfiona.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6561146385820548849.post-17818182643613338012011-08-04T12:28:37.266+10:002011-08-04T12:28:37.266+10:00I'd like to recommend Amy Butler's Style S...I'd like to recommend Amy Butler's Style Stitches. Now, Miss Butler is a freak about interfacing and Peltex, so be prepared! Her patterns are full-sized. I traced them on freezer paper--works great! I used my 40% off coupon and that made it about the price of one of her patterns. A great value since that book has 12 patterns. <br />I love your vintage bag and I think that print suits it well.<br />Best,<br />Rikka J<br />Ricochet and Away!Ricochethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06431838654357998094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6561146385820548849.post-8645443146033650162011-08-04T09:56:49.719+10:002011-08-04T09:56:49.719+10:00i have looked at that book and lusted after it!

I've got a bit of an addiction to craft books, I have so many but I have to admit I am yet to make anything from any of them! <br />I think when I eventually get around to it I will make something from Lisa Lam's 'The Bag Making Bible' It's got lots of projects in it and she really knows what she's talking about. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02794359421604044024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6561146385820548849.post-56835377341861718942011-08-04T07:42:18.418+10:002011-08-04T07:42:18.418+10:00great baggreat bagTeekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12973813717640418670noreply@blogger.com
