Crochet - Mermaid Tears Purse CAL

[Jcrochet]

My daughter's birthday falls on Easter this year, so we celebrated Saturday and I gave her the Mermaid Tears Bag. I think she liked it!

I will admit she looked very stylish the next day walking into church.

Oh wow! Love seeing this! She does look happy! Lucky girl. Thank you for sharing!

Thank you, she was so excited that I had made something for her. She is slightly disgruntled that the CAL is not for her room. I have told both my kids that once the CAL is done I will do a smaller afghan for their rooms.

Thanks for sharing.

My pleasure in sharing, everyone here was so helpful while my mind melted over the colors that I thought you all should see how it was received .

I love love love this purse!! I started one using some yarn i left over from a project I did last year just to try that crocodile stitch. I love it!! I think I've found christmas presents for most of my family this year!!

now is such a terrific time to start thinking about Christmas presents! I have such a tough time deciding what to make. There are lots of ideas here in teh Crochet and knit-a-longs though. I also have to go to a wedding in August for my cousin who is in her twenties. I wanted to make her something. I have thought of a blanket, anyone have any other suggestions?

I'm so glad I finally got to try this. Here is my purse with modifications and I used stash yarn

It's beautiful!! looks like a clutch bravo!

Thank you I was originally thinking kindle cover so I wouldn't have to do a lining but I'm leaning towards lining it now but will wait til after these 3 blankets are done

Almost done with the purse. Need a couple of sewing still and I'm working on the lining also. As soon as I am done I'll post picture (that is if I can finish the blanket first)

[zhanie]

Nice! I am working so hard on my blankets! I don't think I have ever made so many cute things in such a short time. It definately gives me the confidence to know that I can finish a project, and with some new skills along the way. Can't wait to see your purse!

Just finished two purses. One for my daughter and a matching one for my granddaughter. I think I'll give them to my daughter on her birthday in June.
