Jelly Clip Purses

May 11, 2016 By A Spoonful of Sugar - 8 Comments

Homespun Magazine May 2016 - Jelly Clip Purse Patterns

The May issue of Homespun features one of my projects. It is always exciting to get your work published, especially in such a lovely magazine like Homespun. This issue is filled with lots of sweet projects such as quilts, toy, embroidery, pillow and more! I have made a series of four purses that all feature the Jelly Clip purse frames by Lecien. Jelly Clip frames are available in three sizes and a range of lovely bright colours. My projects use the 14 cm (5.5 inch) frames. These purses can be used for a variety of purposes such as make-up/cosmetic purse; mini first aid kit; sewing kit; or regular coin purse.

      Good luck in tracking them down! You could ask you local quilt shop if they could order them in. They make great gifts.
