See it came out really good. I think you could sell some of those, I'm sure people will buy them! You did it pretty quick too if I were making something like that it would take me a good long while

Very pretty. Looks like it took a lot of work. How did you make it? Always admiring a completed project is so rewarding. I work on crafts but they are made with plastic canvas and yarn. When I am all finished with a 6 piece project of the Sesame Street characters I enjoy making, I can't believe how it all turns out.

Thanks,
basically i quilted squares and sewed them together to make the bag shape.
also you sew a piece of batting between 2 pieces so you need double the squares you need to make the bag i think i used about 40 squares.

It turned out well.
If you keep working on projects such as this and enjoy it, you may want to do something like open an Etsy shop so that you can sell your wares to earn a few extra dollars.
I've been thinking about taking a sewing class to improve my skills. I think that I might wait until a little later in the year, though, until some other things have gotten settled.

I thought about selling them, I started to make a website i think i will try that, because i did jewelry on e-bay for a little while and only ever sold 1 thing.

I am putting them up on my website hopefully in 2 weeks. Maybe we could somehow make a deal and i could sell you one.
I am not very good at this i have never done it before but, send me a personal message and hopefully we can figure it out.

You are creative.
I like the design, it's very simple but pretty.
I also love crafting a lot and made my bags, purses and other things by hands.
