Easy Birthday Presents

Thumbelina got invited to a birthday party. So we went and looked through our fabric stash. Then we went and looked through the remnant bins at Joanns. We spent $4 on three different fabrics and will be able to make about 5 purses out of it.

I made this purse and a couple of matching hair flowers for the birthday girl.

I made two purses but the first one, I made the bottom too wide so that will go in the dress up cabinet. But now I know--cut 1.5 inch squares out instead of 2 inches. They are lined in a pink fabric and the one has pink on the inside of the handle but I ran out of the pink so this one just has dots on both sides of the handle. I used a couple of flowers from a previous project and an 'e' to personalize it a bit.

Super easy and super quick! I am going to teach Thumbelina to sew the flower hair bows sometime.

Next up: I am making the girls cupcake purses for Easter. I just need to figure out what to make the boy!
