Wrist Wallet

I found a pattern for a wrist wallet. I want one for bike riding. I hate putting it in a purse in the basket behind me cause I can't hear it. If I put it in my pocket it falls out. So looked and looked. Did one and it was too flimsy for me. So I gave it to Jenny. She loved it.


So I made one from jean material. I love it! I thought I would put a magnetic snap one it. I didn't realize I would need to put it on the lining material so it wouldn't show outside. But the material would have been too thin anyway. So I put it on and then was trying to figure out how to cover it. Connie had found the bee applique and of course it just fits my hobby! I love this! I also use it to carry the phone around in the house when I have the headphone on.


I am thinking of a little pocket so I can carry my headphones in it too.

Second Jean purse


To start out, I got another jeans purse done for Jenny. We took them to her last weekend. She loved them.
This one was a little harder. I tried to save as much of the design as I could. And I had NO idea what I was going to do about the strap! I wanted to use this skinny red belt I had but it was too skinny. So…I took the left over lining material and made a braided strap. Which of course used up any for the belt! So I found some yellow ribbon. Would have preferred more material!

Shorts into purse

Oh my gosh! Sometimes I amaze myself, rofl...

Over a month ago my granddaughter (14) asked me if I would turn a couple of little pairs of shorts into purses. Of course, I said yes! I have a hard time telling my only granddaughter no! And no I did NOT tell her I had never done it before, rofl..
I told her I would get them done before school started...but nope didn't get to it.
Today I did. And of course I picked the one pair that I had no idea how I was gonna make a strap for it!
But got the purse part made. I thought well heck I would make a belt for it and think about a strap later. DUH! I made a strap like the belt! And left it in two parts so she can tie it the length she wants!
I think it needs a snap to keep it from gapping open but no problem, I have them!

And I even lined it!


Jenny if you don't want this, hun, I'll keep it and use it myself! Rofl..

We got Heather finished moving into the little house. Quite a job lol..Now to see if the girls can learn to live and get along!
Jenny and Heather did the finally cleaning! They were working hard!
Jenny cleaning fridge,
Heather mopped the walls!....
They did have their goof off times!
Get it clean good Hev!

Cleaning done..now to take the last little bit to the van!

Of course Tanner, Brian, and Connie worked just as hard! But I wasn't there with the camera lol. Brian helped the guys move the furniture. Connie and Tanner were having to work at the little house to make ROOM for the furniture! It is a pain melding two households! Especially when it is two single females that both want their stuff in use! gRRR lol..
