I see myself as a patient person with impatience swings. Or perhaps it’s the other way around, if I’m realistic. I am so very patient with animals and children! I am so very impatient with everything else, with a particular low to stupidity! But anyways, that wasn’t why I started this post.
I wanted to talk about my patience attributes (or lack of), because I bought this really good curvy clutch pattern from Keyka Lou’s Etsy shop just before I went on holiday (again, a story for another post) and this posed a problem - I just had to try it out immediately! Of course this means imperfections – there is only so much multi-tasking a girl can do! - the packing for the holiday could have been better and so could the wee clutch, but I love it anyway! I used the leftovers of this bag due to a combination of factors, really – I love this green (so happy!), it was just about the right size, and I wanted to use it on a good project.
For my next clutch, I’ll definitely use the suggested invisible lining (will make it more sturdy), enlarge the pattern a bit (I travel light, but this is still a bit too small) and give myself a quiet time to enjoy the sewing (although multi-tasking is so much fun!).
