I love ruffles - they add such a fun and feminine style! I have fun making them and adding them to my projects, as you can probably tell by looking through my shop. I want my bags, pillows, and other treasures to be fun and flirty and I think the ruffles are perfect. My love of ruffles started back in Home-Ec. One of the first projects we did was a pillow. I used this fantastic fabric that had moons and stars a little bit of sparkle and we added a big ruffle around the border. I love it so much, I still have it. It went to college with me and now it sits on my couch. It is sitting right next to me, in fact. When I started making clutches, ruffles were the first thing I started playing around with. I am still trying new things out and exploring new fabrics (have you seen my upcycled scarf clutch?) but the ruffles are here to stay!
This week I added another double-ruffle clutch in a fun yellow and brown fabric. I don't usually like yellows, but something about this fabric jumped out at me. It is a unique piece and is perfect for spring. I am also working on a ruffled clutch with three ruffles, like the purple leaf clutch. It is sitting in pieces at my sewing machine and will hopefully be up on Etsy soon, so stay tuned!
