my wild side

I LOVE that fabric "The rose tattoo" by Alexander Henry so I made a purse out of it :)
The strip fabric is "Noah's Ark" by Sunshine Cottage

one pocket inside

the purse is pleated

and the final result :)

It's not everybody's taste but it's MY taste lol

In Flanders Fields

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved, and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

— Lt.-Col. John McCrae

52 pieces later...

My baby girl needed a dress coat but I wanted something different, so I made it... I know, I know... it remind me of that song from Dolly Parton, Coat of many colors, but keep in mind that I did, just like her mama, made it with love for my daughter ;)

This pattern was 52 pieces, THAT I didn't know when I started cutting the pattern pieces lol but I'm glad I didn't give up :)
