It's my boyfriend's brother's girlfriend's birthday (say that ten times fast) this month so decided as we couldn't think of what to get her to make her a handbag.  I wanted to make one like on Prudent Baby: Beginner's Bias Tape Bag with Free Downloadable Pattern
but I forgot to print out the pattern so I had to do it from memory, think it turned out just fine - take a look.  I added a fastening with a button and loop and can't decide whether to put a corsage on it or not...hmmm

I also made a feather headband for her, I cut two tear shapes from felt and then sewed on feathers in three layers.  I sewed the two pieces of felt together around the headband and then glued a sparkle to the bottom of the feathers to add an extra bit of glitz!  It's a bit tropical in colour but I think it's fun and made another for myself too as I just couldn't resist!

Well, I would show you the photos but the lovely Fizz has decided that the laptop case which holds the cable to transfer the pictures from the camera is her new bed.  As soon as she gets up I'll grab the cable, but as cats tend to sleep for about 20hrs per day I'm thinking my chances of getting the cable tonight are slim to nil.
