Happy Quilting and Sewing

The pattern is called Bow Tucks, and it is sold at many quilt and craft stores. I personally got mine from Connecting Threads (http://www.connectingthreads.com/cfp...y.cfm?ID=55420), but I was ordering many other goodies that I got free shipping. You can do a search on Bow Tucks pattern and find the best deal for you. The designer also have a Mini Bow Tucks pattern if you need a smaller size purse. It looks like Denise B's avatar is a bow tucks too (or something similar). I hope this helps. Good luck and don't forget to show us what you make
:-D

Candi, you did a great job on your purse. It is so nice of you to encourage the rest of us to try. It looks so complicated I have been afraid to try, but I have bought a few from Denise. It would be kind of fun to be able to do something so wonderful though. Thank you. :-)
