This gray/green heavyweight canvas was wonderful to work with. It's actually refreshing for me to make a purse with a solid exterior. I am usually drawn to bold prints. This solid fabric shows off the design elements of this purse.
Thanks to my sister Jill's request, I have a new purse design to offer! Named after her, the "Jill" is a pleated purse with a bow and adjustable strap. This bag is pleated inside and out, and is similar to another of my styles, the Round the Town purse. But the Jill has a long, adjustable strap that converts from shoulder to cross-body. I really love the bow! The straps of the bow can be unknotted and tied any way you choose. I think I'll make them a couple inches shorter next time, unless you like them this long.

This solid fabric shows off the design elements of this purse. The adjustable strap is awesome for a busy gal like my sister! Throw it over your shoulder, or lengthen the strap and wear it cross-body. The interior is a linen-cotton blend, repurposed from a dress. There's a large YKK zippered pocket on one side, and 2 slip pockets and pen slots on the other. It closes with a magnetic snap. I plan to list this purse -- fully customizable with your choice of fabrics, of course -- in my Etsy shop for $45. What do you think of the Jill? -- René

I find it very becoming, and of course I'm not biased at all!
