It is so hard to make a surprise if you dont know the person's taste. It sounds like you really want her to like it and if she has hinted that she would like you to make a purse for her, she wants to like it too.

Both of you will be sad if you give it to her and she doesnt like it.

When she dropped that hint, what sort of fabrics had she seen you work with?

I think I would ask her to say what sort of fabric she would like. Bringing her to the fabric shop sounds good- you could even show her this fabric without identifying it?

What do you think the DIL will think of it? If you think she will like it then she probably will. Guys don't carry purses so how does he know? It is cute and will be a conversation piece.

First of all, is your son going to use it? I think it is cute. Don't go by his taste. You know how men are :roll:

Thanks, this is not even the son that is dating this girl. The son who does not like the fabric does have very good taste. However his taste is not the same as Kahla's. I just feel bad now. I would hate to give it to her for Christmas and she not like it. She has wanted me to make her a purse for long time now. I am wondering if I should give it to her for her birthday next week. Then if she is not totally pleased I will make another one for Christmas.

Giving it to her for her birthday might be a good idea. Every gal likes to have more than one purse!!!

I say make another one and give them both to her. The honest truth here is that you know her and we don't so for us to give an opinion is kind of hard. I think the bag is cute!!
