Another CD Case

Here’s another CD case that’s a bit different in functionality and holds a whopping 8 CD’s.  I used an old pair of jeans (actually same pair that I used on the last one), some extra fabric from a purse I made, a couple red buttons & some elastic to hold it closed.  I also added my JJ Janet’s Junk tag to the back.  I reinforced the whole thing to make it stiff using a couple cardboard cut outs from our soda 12 packs boxes.  It was the coolest thing to use and I just cut it to size and sewed it in.  I’m lovin’ this one and am hoping to make a few more the next few days.

Cherries Jubilee

I started off making a hobo bag but then I missed a few steps at the start and decided to wing it and call it my own.  The outer fabric is a denim weight with black/white stripes.  I handmade the cherries applique on front, magnetic closure, 2 pockets inside with matching outer fabric, lining is pink with little bubbles.  Handle matches both fabrics.  This is a gift for a friend…she saw one her friend bought and wanted one like it.  Although it’s not as big as her friends, I think this one is better.

Hawaiian Style Purse

Okay, maybe not Hawaiian style per say, but the print of florals reminds me of Hawaiian prints.  I made my own pattern for this one, used some denim type fabric with a floral print, edged it with lace and added a magnetic closure.  Inside is a blue fabric with white print and yellow pockets.  What you can’t see is there is 2 large pockets on the outer edges and then on the inner part of the pocket, I made 2 pencil/pen spaces.  The handles are connected using wood napkin rings that I got at a consignment store I think.  This one’s for sale guys so if anyone is interested, let me know.  Otherwise it will eventually end up on my Etsy site.
