My purse patterns

Have you seen this months issue of Australian Homespun magazine? Look who's on the front! Little ol' me and my purse pattern.

If you haven't already gone out and purchased this month's copy- in it you'll find the instructions and patterns for making 2 ...yes 2, of my purses! Here's what they look like...

This is the cute little purse that made it onto the cover.

And here's the other design...

Both equally as cute I say. Would make a great little gift for a stitching friend.

Which design is your favourite?

Love both, but as a fabricaholic I have to choose the one with the fabrics!

[Says kaholly]

Oh, my goodness! They are just divine!

[Says Jacqueline]

Sooooo cute. You are not only generous but very talented. I think I would go with the quilt buddies only because most of my friends are quilters not stitchers.

[Says sarah drees]

dear dear Bronwyn, i just love your sweet drawings and patterns...but....before i toss this "new" computer out of the window...could you pretty please send me the patterns for pages 23,24 and 25......i would contact you directly but i cannot seem to locate an address...i had a "brutus" only mine was named murphy brown...and i still miss the "little" 18 pound guy....sigh..
thank you again for sharing your talents.......

[Says Bronwyn Hayes]

Hi Sarah-
Stop!! Don't throw it out the window just yet- take a few deep breaths- go and have a cup of tea- or a walk around the garden-and I will send the pages to you in an e-mail.

I know what you mean about throwing the computer out the window.
I've been there myself.
But it's a costly exercise!
Bronwyn ...

[Says jules]

I love them both, but I'm going to make the appliqué version as a gift for my daughter.

[Says Denise :)]

Both are equally adorable ... but the girlfriends one does strike a chord! :)

[Says Lynn B]

Hi Bronwyn,

I purchased the Homespun magazine in England on Saturday and I was thrilled to see your purse designs, even though I had purchased one of your purse patterns only a couple of months ago! I love the embroidered purse, it is gorgeous, but they are both lovely!

Congratulations being on the front cover, as soon as I saw your purse I could not buy the magazine fast enough! lol

Please could you tell me where to buy the metal purse clips from with the red ball tops?
