Granny Chic Vintage Purses/ Clutches/ Bags

These granny chic clutches are something I put together this weekend. I have been making a ton of Amy Butler purse patterns, some of my own vintage fabric purses, and even some bags, so I though I would break out and try a clutch or two.

The final picture is some cherry fabric spring purses I made for my nieces, the tiny cherry purse is for one little American Girl Doll named Abbie.

Vintage Cherry Feedsack Purse - Cheery Cherry Handbag

This purse is made from the cutest piece of vintage cherry feedsack fabric! I love love love this one as well!

Inside is lined with a coordinating vintage blue plaid. Hmmm, I like this one for Memorial Day and July 4th!

This is a pattern I somewhat pulled together after seeing a very cute photo of a purse. It was pretty easy to do, so the next one I sew I will take a ton of photos for a tutorial for you. This is one of those super easy purse patterns perfect for kids, beginners, and anyone with a sewing machine.

Vintage Strawberry Fabric Purse

Here are some photos of the cutest purse made from vintage strawberry fabric. I made this hand made purse for myself, so you probably will not be seeing it on Etsy.

If I am lucky enough to come across some more of this vintage strawberry feedsack fabric, then maybe you will see purse for sale on Etsy!

I attached a pouch or wallet inside and added a green zipper to keep the vintage strawberry theme going!

More Breaks from the Amy Butler Purse and Fabric

Ok, so I started working on a messenger bag pattern and I love it! This one is my first try. I used a vintage blue fabric that I was lucky enough to buy 5 yards of.

This is the same vintage blue fabric that I made the fabric shopping bag out of.

Feeling a little patriotic, so I used some red striped twill inside. I love wearing a messenger bag and keep coming across patterns for sale. They are simple, so if you can follow an online purse tutorial, you can easily make your own messenger bag pattern!

I may be listing this on on Etsy, not too sure yet!

A Break From Vintage Purses

Ok, thought I would take a break from all the Amy Butler purses and inspired purse and show some photos of something else.

I threw these about a month ago and they are the most lovely shade of red, magenta, purple, and even clear. The color is Cohen's Red. I listed them on Etsy if you feel you can't live without them!

There is a matching honey jar in the kiln which will be added soon as well.

Addicted to Amy Butler Downtwon Purse!

I forgot to show you the inside of the Amy Butler Downtown purse. Most people use coordinating fabrics from Amy Butler when making her purse patterns.

Of course, I am no exception. I used the full moon in Cherry red as the inside fabric on the flap of the downtown purse.

I also used a snap in place of the Velcro recommended by the Amy Butler Downtown Purse pattern.

Amy Butler Uptown Purse

Ok, made the Amy Butler Uptown purse with some vintage fabric. This is an easy Amy Butelr pattern and much quicker to assemble than the Downtown Amy Butler purse.

So, check out the photos of my Amy Butler Uptown Purse project made with vintage fabric!
