At first I was going to make a sewing machine cover but I changed my mind. I wanted something I could use on a regular basis so I designed and made this clutch. It is very roomy for everyday use.
I pulled this fabric collection that I bought a few years ago to make my clutch. I love the combination of pink, yellow and green. I did a bit of sketching and measuring to get the size that I would like. I heavily quilted the exterior with straight line stitching using Aurifil thread.
These are some things that fit quite nicely in my new clutch. I always carry these essentials with me because you never know when hunger strikes or my kids asking for food when they get picked up after school.
As you can see, I still have plenty of room for keys and other knick knacks. I love the pockets. It keeps my phone away from things that could scratch it.

Must be really comfy, silly cat ;-D

The ruffle just adds a bit more femininity (is that spelled right?) to the lovely fabrics you chose for your clutch. Well done. THX for the giveaway opportunity. I'll follow on facebook since you have that option.
Your clutch is adorable! Love the shabbychicness of it!
A beautiful clutch:) love all the internal pockets.
Thank you for sharing the clutch. I like the many pockets inside.
Adorable clutch, I like the little pockets it has, and it would also work as a divider in a larger bag as an easy transfer bag. Thanks for sharing.
I follow you on Bloglovin'.
The clutch is adorable and roomy. When I first saw the picture, I thought you had added a ruffle between rows on a quilt. You tricked me. I adore the clutch and I really like the magnetic clasp. The fabric is just perfect for a spring project. Thanks for participating and great inspiration.
