THE NEW RAGE... HANDY HANDBAG POCKET ORGANIZERS

These sure are the rage at the moment. So many of today's purses do not have pockets or NOT enough of them. I've seen them advertized on QVC for as much as $30.
But someone has found the secret for "Vera Bradley" pockets and now you can make your own. I plan to make some for gifts. They are very easy to make and can use scraps of material. I like the two tone ones the best. Outside and inside fabric are contrasting colors and prints. Here are just a few of the fun combinations that I have come up with.

Descriptions: Breast Cancer, Halloween, African Elephants and my favorite " Silly Cats" and Sassy Girlfriends!

CUTE CUPCAKE PINCUSHIONS

I've been making these darling little cupcake pincushions and sure do like them. They make such great gifts for sewers. The best thing about these little beauties is that " they won't topple or roll over while using them". Remember how the old tomatoe pin cushions always roll around when you are trying to use them! These don't and that's the best part besides looking so darn cute!!

The one that I saw had little ''fake candy bits'' around the outside of the fluted cupcake holders. I think they are so cute. They are pastel ''brads'' that I attached to the top edge. I just punched a tiny hole and pulled the brad through.

They look good enough to eat!!
