    was a lot easier than the first one! This one is for my friend Sally, who wanted one to match her little yellow and black convertible that's back home in Iowa. She loved the black and white and red one I made for my DDIL for Christmas.

    I make a lot of the little wallets to sell at craft shows, and wanted her to have one to match her purse. I don't make the bow tucks to sell at shows -- they just take so long to make, I just don't think I could make any money on them. So, I make one every once in a while for someone special.

    Hope you like this one!

    People don't realize how long it takes to make purses. They want you to make it for them, but they want it cheap. Your time is valuable so I understand why you don't want to try to sell them at craft shows. It is really pretty and your friend will love it.
