Gathered clutch
Thursday, December 9, 2010 at 3:29PM Cute huh? I actually whipped up two of these today, between my doctor appointment, getting my prescriptions filled, running to the DMV, and taking the schnauzer to the groomer.
Floors are swept, time to make pizza crusts for dinner. So much for staying off the foot and keeping it elevated right? How am I supposed to do that?
I’m using the little clutch as a cosmetic bag, it’s about 4” x 8” finished, maybe a smidge bigger. I happened to run across a tutorial on them a couple of days ago, and I’d picked up some fat quarters while at Mama’s Log House yesterday just to make them with.
Three fat quarters will make two clutches, and you’ll have enough of the lining and band fabric to make a third, if you scrounge up another coordination fabric for the front and back. These are sewn, not “in the hoop projects. No embroidery machine needed! A much nicer finish inside and out in my opinion… I probably won’t do any more in the hoop ones after trying these.
