Hi everyone!!!
I hope you are enjoying all the projects Eileen Hull's Inspiration Team has been sharing using the NEW HeartFelt Collection from Sizzix along with some fabulous Kunin Felt.
I created a purse to give to my grand-daughter.
She will be graduating 5th grade and she absolutely loves purses.
So I think she will love this one!!!
It is eclectic as she is.
Begin by first die cut one Sizzix Journal cover from mat board or paper to use as a pattern.
Fold 12" x 18" Smoke Kunin Felt in half.
Lay journal cover on top of Kunin Felt; cut felt with scissors.
Repeat to top of folded Kunin Felt.

Sew sides together with sewing machine to for purse.
Turn top over 1/2" sew down with sewing machine.
Cut left over Smoke Kunin Felt in half to make two narrow strips.
