still ridiculously unclean and imperfect... but I'm just testing out different "styles" and learning at the same time.

So I made another zipper clutch, just larger than the first one I posted last week. The first time, I was too much in a rush (and didn't have the material) to line it. This time, I had a nice sheer satin for a cleaner and nicer look on the inside. In the end it's still a really rough prototype so no, I don't have any interior photos. Too awful, whoops! But I hope I can perfect this (a zipper foot would really help, too) soon so that when I make them for my friends and family, I won't be catching any grimaces.
Oh, and I forgot to mention, the smaller clutch actually has no zipper at all. I sewed in "invisible" magnets between the "pleather" and the lining within the flap and front piece! This one is actually quite messy, but I like its simple look very, very much despite it all.


Just random pictures from the process:









Materials (Invisible & regular magnet snaps; plastic and metal zippers; pleather-ish material; satin) all found in Joann's Fabrics, but I also bought extra material (zippers and satin) from a thrift store. Cheaper!

Made more clutches! I'm still gettin' the hang out if, but they're decent enough since they're just for moi. No pictures because it's night time and the lighting is awful. Tomorrow!
