    I made this little purse for my sister for Christmas. When she washes it, the edges of the squares will fray to give it a ragged edge.

    I love, love, LOVE the interior fabric. It makes me giggle.

    I don't know what the name of the stitch is that I used up the center, but I thought it added to the rustic look. This was the second time I ever did a buttonhole. Buttonholes really make me nervous. LOL

    No pattern. I was making a Christmas ragged edge quilt for my aunt and had some leftover squares. I decided to piece them together using a basic bag pattern that a friend showed me. I decided to tuck the corners to give it better stability and it worked pretty well.
