Spiro purse

In the middle of September I went to the Quilting with Machines show in Huron, Ohio. It was a great show as I believe I've said before, but I watched Dusty do Spiro quilting and loved it. I used to love my spirograph when I was a kid. He mentioned it made good purses and accents on quilts so I set my mind to making a purse. I've never made anything like that before but figured it was worth a shot. I happened to have a purse pattern I'd bought at Appletree Quilting in Columbia, MO. It's really neat, has a lattice pattern for the sides of the purse. So I just substituted that for a spiro design and made my purse. I've been working on it for awhile (have gotten side tracked a time or two with other items), but finally the purse is done. I love it and am very proud of it for a first attempt.
