The oldest son’s wedding is the end of July.
My dress is a blue-lavender lace – and gorgeous. My shoes are ivory.
Lugging a luggage bag-sized “Mom purse” would be guaranteed to ruin the outfit.
Went through The Stash and collected a few bits and pieces in appropriate colors.
To include a color match to the dress, I purchased a hank of matching embroidery thread. Total cost was $0.40.
The face is a cabochon created using some Polymer Clay (yes, there is also a Polymer Clay Stash.)
Stash Dupioni in ivory and apricot form the purse itself. The lace was layered over the apricot for contrast.
The pattern is a simple self-closing wristlet that is just the right size for a cell phone and a few necessities (such as tissues for the ceremony!)
Such an improvement over the Mom luggage bag!
It’s beautiful!
Wonderful- and as you said much better than a luggage bag! And no-one would ever believe you only spent 40cents.
Enjoy the wedding 🙂
Where do I find the pattern for this wristlet?
These wristlets are such fun to make and use. I have made several.
The pattern is my own, but Vogue 7354 has two options that are similar.
