I made a purse!
Mar. 29th, 2003 10:41 amI was really bored with my purse selection so I went to Value Village and bought a stuffed elephant. (My husband picked it out!)
So here is 'Ernie', so named by my husband.



He was pretty easy to make. I just seam ripped the seam down the back and pulled out all the stuffings. All the men in the room were shocked, and worried about the elephant! I then sewed a liner out of left over black sheet from another project. I didn't make it a perfect liner, but just a weird trapezoid shape so I could poke it into his head and use that space for storing more stuff.
I used buttons to for clasps, but it is really inconvenient so I am going to redo that with black velcro instead.
