Secret Sister Gift

Some of you remember that at our Secret Sister reveal in December some of my ladies could not make it due to some family stuff going on.  So Julie brought Lyn's gift to this year's first meeting.  Here is what she made her - this amazing coin purse made with SU's Spice Cake fabric.  Man I wished I knew how to sew.  Isn't this great?!?!  She did say it was a lot of work and that she was never going to make another - so I guess Lyn has a one of a kind :)
 She also decoupaged this "L" for Lyn, and the elastic around it with the butterfly, flower and ribbon, can be removed and used as a book mark - so clever!
Finally - she made her this adorable lanyard that she can use for her work swipe card.  It is very similar to the ones Julie made us last year for our convention gifts.  What a great set of gifts - and Lyn was thrilled to get them.
Hope you enjoyed - my downline is so amazingly creative!  ~Maureen

Those are really cool. I was just looking at a coin purse at Michaels that you could re-cover with SU fabric. I almost bought it... but man I have so many things to make now. lol

I love the coin purse, I wish I could sew as well but that is one gift God decided not to grant me :) Thanks so much for sharing!
