Made myself a purse

I took a detour from embroidering to make myself a purse.  I've made bags but never anything with a zipper.  This was a new technique for me.  I plan on making more bags/purses with zippers.  The only thing I would do differently is to cut closer to the seam on the ends of the zipper.  Otherwise, the instructions were great!

The pattern is from Lazy Girl Designs.  It's the Margo Handbag.  The fabric is something I picked up when we visited our daughter in Benin, West Africa. 

It washes well and, so far, has worn well.
