My Fat Bottom Purse

[Empress Busy Bee]

I love this pattern and am happy how mine turned out.

[Homebody]

Oh! I love it! It turned out very nice! I love the floral print lining. Thanks for sharing.

[seabreeze]

I agree! It turned out really nice and I like the lining too.

[nutz4crochet]

Me too! That liner looks so good with your bag.

[jstwannacrochet]

Like how it turned out. I am almost finished with mine and started it last night.

[Pam Gillette]

That is awesome! I love the color plum - the linning is perfect! Great job!!!

[Shelleden]

oooh, me like, me like!!!

[Aelita]

wow I like it too and I like the star trek pin on it.

[auntbubbels]

I love your purse and the color is fabulous -

[mscrocheter]

That came out great. Lovely color too!

[Empress Busy Bee]

Thank you!

I had to go to a couple stores to find a fabric I liked for it. My daughter likes it too and helped me decide on which pin to use. LOL

 

If anyone wants to make it but is having doubts, I say go for it. It's super easy to make. I want to make bunches and bunches more.

WOW! You've been busy! I like it very much!

[crochetmama]

I love your purse! You did a great job. That's a purse even my husband would love (he's a Trekkie!). Well be sure and post all of the new purses you make!

[crochetlady]

I like a long narrow purse. Yours turned out very well! And that lining is just perfect.

[Empress Busy Bee]

Wow nice purse! Is there a link I missed

No, you didn't miss a link. I should have been more clear rather than just figure everyone would know.

It's from The Happy Hooker book.

Thanks again everyone.

Stylish purse!

[crochet_princess]

could you pretty plz tell me how to line the bag i just got done making my fat bottom bag and i don't know how to line purses

[Empress Busy Bee]

Lining it was hard. Next time, if I make another one, I'll line it before I crochet the handle flaps. I did make a pattern before I did that part so that helped. It's kind of an oval with the ends dipped in like this: ) (

I pinned everything where I wanted it, using a ton of pins even side by side because it bunches and overlaps. Then I hand stitched it very slowly to make sure it stayed even and where I wanted.

That's it mostly.

[crochet_princess]

thank you for telling me how to do that. now I only have to find fabric if you want to see mine click on myuberlyawesomeblog under my signature

[Empress Busy Bee]

I like that pink! They didn't have much when I bought my yarn. Like how you added the fuzzy to it.

[Tampa Doll]

Beautiful purse. I love the fabric inside.

Wish I could sew well enough to do that. Me and sewing do not get along.

[Empress Busy Bee]

Oh me either Mary Jo. But when it's for me, I fudge a lot and don't show anyone the awful details. And never make anything I have to sew for anyone else except my daughter who's too young to care.

[Ilene]

I really love it, and your most wonderful touch is the Star Trek emblem! You are my hero!

[kellyv]

Really love the color!!! That came out really nice and I love the lining!!!
