Nuance and Sun Stone by Paula Nadelstern for Benartex.


Have you seen these? Nuance and Sun Stone by Paula Nadelstern for Benartex.



I couldn't wait to get my needle into these gorgeous fabrics.
Hand quilted detail was fun to do.


Using my Fat-Quarter Scrap-bag™ pattern
I stitched up this clutch bag in about 30 minutes!




Now I have to say that I am not a 'glitzy girl' BUT
if I was this would be the perfect candidate for
some beading or crystals!

Photo below shows the back of the clutch, complete
with woven Scrap-bags™ label.


View below shows the coordinating lining along with the
magnetic snap closures.

Love how the fabrics work outward on the bag. My daughter would love something like that. I need to try some pouches and purses and get over my fear of making things like that.

Jamie,
What a fantastic piece of fabric- I do love Paula Nadelstern's work- I had the good fortune to see her speak at our guild a few years ago. Her quilts are glorious as is this fabric. Your purse design is perfect for such a beautiful piece. Beads are an excellent addition.
Thanks so much for sharing.
Warmest regards,
Anna
