Kaffe Fassett Collective small quilt squares COOL
2.5" x 2.5" - 250 squares.
I'm gaining an addiction to 2.5" squares :-)



In 1988 Kaffe became the first living textile artists to have a one man show at the Victoria & Albert Museum. The exhibition attracted such crowds that the Museum doubled attendance figures during the run

44 Purses later

 A marathon 44 Purse making session
Each one different
ready for my craft fair next week
Nothing like a craft fair to get me making goodies
I have been slack for over 6 months!
I have just uploaded the photos of each one to flickr
as I thought showing 44 purses and 88 photos would be a bit much!

These are approx 4.5" x 4.5", I used a stack of my 5" quilting squares.
Zips I purchased last year from Etsy - I think Zip it..
Lining fabric mainly the cheaper printed fabrics I use to back my quilts
(the ones on the larger rolls in quilting or fabric shops.).
The zip end covers are bits of bias binding!
