I've been making a new skirt. It's in a lovely slinky-drapey navy fabric, but it's not finished yet because it needs a zipper and I've been struggling to insert one without a proper zipper foot – so all zipper projects are still on hold. \u00a0But it's all cut out and ready and I have some fabric left over.<\/p>\n

I'm a sucker for matching accessories – I made the Molly bag<\/a> to match my Paper Bag Skirts<\/a>. \u00a0So I decided to make a new handbag to go with this navy skirt. \u00a0But I only had a little fabric left over and looked around for a pattern that would only use a small amount – and I came across the Buttercup bag<\/a> – perfect.<\/p>\n

I was really happy with the bag. \u00a0But I wanted more bling – I had these blue rhinestones I got from the fabric shop. \u00a0I had no idea what I was going to do with them at the time I bought them, but I really liked the color. \u00a0I thought they would look great on the bag. \u00a0But how do I stick them on? I know, I've got a glue gun.<\/p>\n

But – the bag is awesome. \u00a0It's just the right size and shape, uses a small amount of fabric and I love it. \u00a0I'm sorry I messed up with the glue gun. \u00a0I can see I'll be making more of these in the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
