Summer Purse

[MissMaggie]

I made a two new bags for the summer. My sister has requested the bright one and I have been using the other. The bright one still needs to be finished around the strap and the zipper put in. The natural color has a lining and a pocket on the inside. Thanks for looking!!

They are both very pretty! I love the flower zip pull! Very nice touch!

Very cute and very well done! Are they just done with WW yarn? I'm always afraid to make straps because they always seem to stretch out.

Very cute! I like the flower as well but I'm more of a bright colors person!

Very cute! Those would look great on the beach.

[crochetdiva]

So pretty!

I wouldn't know how to begin putting in a zipper.

[nevadamama]

You're so talented with the lining and zipper. Very nice summer bags ------- like the designs and colors. Thanks for sharing!

I love the nutural colored one.

If you ever saw the lining I put in the one I made, you would be on the floor laughing.

Beautiful work.

I like those bags and that's a cute zipper pull on the tan bag!

[smyz64]

What type of yarn did you use? Those look like the "Saks". Very nice.

[dreemrytr]

Very nice bags... WOW, zippers and everything! Very cool.

 

Have you ever felted/fulled a bag? Those would look awesome felted (but they'd need to be made larger in order to shrink down to the same size... oh, and made of wool if they weren't already).

 

Great work!

What gorgeous bags! I like the natural one because those are great hot weather colors.

[crochetmama]

Very nice! Your lining and zipper closure look downright professional! I love the colors on both of them. I'm sure you and your sister will get many compliments! Great work!

[Mom w/a Motif]

They're both wonderful! I'm partial to the tan and off-white one, though. I love the little flower zipper pull, too. And you did such a good job with the lining. I always dread that part...

Those are great!-Your sister's lucky!

[gingerchai]

excellent bags! you did a great job on the lining and the zipper too.

[MissMaggie]

Thanks everyone for your kind comments!!! The yarn is Bernat Handicrafter Cotton. Because its made of cotton and stretches I make the straps smaller then I want them, after using it a few times they stretch to just the right length. I don't think the bright one will be lined, just a zipper and a flower pull. Thanks again!!

[Appliejuice]

I agree with everyone above, the bags are wonderful. I like the natural one and the flower zipper pull is a super touch.

[tlisley]

Wow! Those are very nice! Your stitches are perfect!! When I grow up I wanna crochet all nice like that too!!
