Today I went out and bought a lot of fabric. I'll make a lot of different things: I got some specifically to make my sister a purse. I also bought some to make myself a little carry around bag. I made it in about 2 hours and put a "Beatles" logo on it. It looks pretty good if I say so myself.
But all this makes me wonder: should I just start some kind of home business where I sell things that I make? I could do it, but it would take a lot of time, and a lot of work. Plus I only like doing this kind of thing when I'm in the mood to. Someone would fill out an order for something, and I'd reply saying, "oh ask me later. I'm not in the mood to fill that order right now..." or "ask for something different. I don't want to make that."
Heres the purse I made:
I still need to re-do the edges of the lettering so that it's more exact, but i'd say that was pretty good for only 2 hours work. I also need to add a pocket and maybe lining to thei inside. It's about 14x16'' and the straps are about 16'' from the top of the bag to the shoulder, so 32'' full length. I like it a lot. It will serve me well. :-) You can't go wrong with the Beatles.
