Heavenly Hobo

I saw this pattern in the cotton ball, and I had to have it. That’s just all there was to it. I had been wanting to make a purse for months, and I just couldn’t find a pattern. Anyway it just so happened that my mother-in-law (seems like a lot of hyphens) was visiting, and suggested we visit Bolt Fabric… a super cute and fairly reasonable store in Portland. Needless to say, I found the cutest fabric which is now my Heavenly Hobo. The pattern was a good learning experience being that it was my first zipper project. And even thought there were a few bumps along the way, I am very happy with the finished product.
