I made this purse for my future daugther in law. My son turned up his nose at the fabric I used. Now I do not know whether to give it to her or make another one. What do you think?

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:

I like it very much. I dont think men have an eye for fashion etc.

I would make another one and let her choose. My husband and my taste are completely different. If it needs a home I'll be happy to give it a loving and caring one. :)

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.

I don't know your DIL's tastes...so its hard to say. How old is your DIL?

I personally wouldn't use that fabric for a purse, but my tastes lie more in solids/tonals/marbles and less with themes and novelty prints for something I'm going to carry around every day - I like batiks for purses. I love the fabric you chose for the liner, though! I'd be more likely to use that.
