Remember awhile back I told you something was in the mail, but I couldn't show you yet? I made a purse and matching wallet for my Auntie. And since I know she checks my blog~ hi auntie!!~ I didn't want to show it until she received it. ;-) When we were visiting home in June she asked if I would make her a purse. Since I have never seen her carry a purse, I really had to think about what she might like. She wanted to be surprised. ~that's almost as scary as reading 'quilt as desired' in a pattern! LOL Cyndi came to my rescue without even realizing it. :-) She had made a super cute purse for me last year, so I asked her about the pattern. It is called the Mini Messenger by Darci Wright for Quilts Illustrated. I did change it a wee bit and added a magnet closure and changed the handle to match mine from Cyndi. After I finished it, I decided it needed a matching wallet. Cyndi designed this wallet, she hasn't published a pattern...yet. ;-)
I'm glad I got it mailed off quick or I might have loaded it with my things! ;-)
Have you been following along with the Summer Star Sampler from Temecula Quilt Co? I finally got caught up~ and tomorrow block four comes out! They were very quick and fun~
Thanks for stopping by~
I'm off to get back to work.
Have a happy day!
