How to make a PlaceMat Purse

I hope this vide helps those who want to make a place mat purse. The purpose of these videos are to make something in expensive but meaningful to those you want to give this to.
Items you will need:
1. Placemat
2. Spool of ribbon or 3 yards of ribbon (you will have extra)
3. matching thread for your sewing machine
4. Buttons, flowers, iron ons or any embellishments

These are great gifts. Placemats can be found anywhere..Pick an easy one that you can sew on. Remember the reason for the gift is to have it in-expensive. Fill up the purse with fun things. If you have a book lover in your family...Put a book inside...Lotions, bath soaps, perfume, nail polish, makeup, a loaf of bread, cookies, goodies. Let your imagine be creative...Remember it's the love you put in the gift not how much you spend. Also put in a home made card with your words of love. Your words can lift someone up within a matter of minutes.

Up coming project:
Bracelet watches...Get your BIG beads ready because those are REALLY fun to make...They are also great gifts as well...

If you would like to see something...Please let me know and I will work on it..

Crafting...If you have a desire to do something....You can make it happen..It all comes down to desire. It's time to learn new skills and I will help you do that.

I really wished you would of sewn it while you talked it out, it would of been better, I got a little confused on the bottom pucher thing.
