More pictures of purse

Here are some more pictures. I'll have more tomorrow. I haven't been this proud of a FO in a while.

Another view of the bag before the handles were added.




I'm trying to show stitch detail without burying the lens in the fabric.




The fabric's not sewn in yet.



This is the bag with the handles sewn in, but before the liner was added. It's sideways, because my genius self forgot to rotate it before I went to upload. Sorry!

I crocheted a purse

Took a while, but I did it! I've just finished the Fat-Bottomed Purse from Stitch 'N Bitch Crochet. It turned out really well. I got agitated with myself, though, because I ran out of yarn and had to buy a new ball to finish four rows. Guess I'll check gauge next time. I'm posting pictures over several posts, because they're huge and take FOREVER to upload. One of the disadvantages of having an 8 megapixel camera.

It's almost done in this picture. This is where I ran out of yarn. I had four rows left on the other handle flap.






This in the liner fabric I'm using. It's called the 4-Point Star of Africa.




Here's another view. I was a bit worried, because on the website I ordered it from, the red looked orange. It's actually even a darker red than it appears here.






This is what the liner looked like in the bag (before I sewed it in). The handles look black, but they're actually dark brown.



I will post more pictures this evening.
