This is April's quiltlet for the BQL challenge. The idea of handbags didn't excite me much, but once I got going it was fun. I didn't have the "proper" patterns to hand, so cut a shape out of silk or velvet, put it in the centre of the backing square (straight onto the wadding), foundation pieced first the sides and then strips on the top and bottom, and joined the squares.
Look at how much difference the quilting makes:
A few trimmings, and it's done -
Next time -plastic bags on a velvety background, perhaps?
