I picked this placemat up from Wal- Mart for $1.50, and as soon as I saw it I knew I wanted to make a clutch out of it, I just wasn't sure how. I went home, played with it, drew out some pictures over one of our coffee times and this is what I came up with.
Many trial and errors.
But it turned out exactly the way I pictured it.
I used part of a belt that E <my researcher> gave me to finish it off.
These are the Spring and Summer colors that I am drawn to this year, the Greens, Tans, Blues, with wood accents. I have one more idea for a summer clutch, but that will be another post.
Or you can hem the opening before you bring up the sides.
Now stitch the placemat on the dotted lines,
Many trial and errors.
