New face

Hi! I've been lurking for a while, but never posted anything. I found you all when I was trying to make a t-shirt purse (the memories are amazing!!) but have been around ever since. I love all the new ideas and creative gifts all you lvoely people put up. IT's so inspiring. I find a new craft to try when I gret out of my dinky dorm all the time.

So I've been playing with my new sewing machine for a while, and I'm still not very good at it but hopefully I'll get better with time and more experience. But I just finished my purse which I'm relatively pleased with, and I wanted to put up pictures.

I'm also putting up pictures of my DS cozy. I need to make a little strappy thing for it for around my wrist, but I don't really take my DS anywhere right now.

That fabric is leftover from my toga. Hah. I like it so much though, yay polka dots!

Purse:
It's not very smooth because I am in a dorm, and I do not have an iron or anything. :(

And of course a pocket for easy cell phone access!

It's all wonky because my sewing machine hated my thread or something. but I still love my dopey little purse
I'll try again some other time.



Any (constructive) criticsm would be awfully helpful, seeing as this is my first purse and all. Thanks!! You guys are awesome.
