To say I'm obsessed is an understatement. I LOVE needlepoint house purses! I've shared my obsession on instagram lately, and it turns out I'm not alone. So we'll be doing a stitch-along to make one!
I was first inspired by this beauty from Anna Sui wayyyy back in 2001
Here's another bag from the same show:
Gorgeous! These are both made from plastic needlepoint canvas, and I believe are fully lined (you can see the lining peeking out of the first bag).
I soon found loads of needlepoint house purses on Pinterest. And there are a few old patterns available on Etsy. But none had exactly what I was looking for. Here are a few cuties:
So! I decided to make my own pattern. And I want to share it with you! We'll have a stitch-along starting in September. There will be weekly prizes, guidance, a free pattern, and loads of fun. You can sign up here.
