Coral and Salmon Coin Purse

The shadow of my camera makes for crummy photos- but oh well. Most of the felt is from The Felt Pod on Etsy. The Felt Pod has so many great color choices- it was hard to narrow it down. I believe the Felt Pod felt was definitely comparable to the felt from Papertrey Ink-meaning it worked well when die cutting. I got some junky felt from Joann's and it was a dismal failure to attempt to die cut. I never really learned to sew but I was able set the zipper and dew this coin purse with the cool coin purse die set from Papertrey Ink. The zipper matches perfectly- I got it from K & Supplies- wonderful choices and great service by the way. I got the lobster clip thing from same place. I was almost foiled by choosing the right thread- contrasting wasn't looking right and I didn't have a match. So, I did what anyone would do- I dyed the thread with a Copic marker. The flowers are also a die set from Papertrey Ink called Button Stacks.

Felt Coffee Cozy

They said it was easy.

They said it was quick.

And they were right!

This coffee cozy was so easy to die cut and stitch together.
Coffee Cozy and heart and heart tag dies from Papertrey Ink. Tiny row of hearts is from Lawn Fawn. Felt is from Papertrey Ink. Now that I know the look and feel, I am hoping to get some on sale at Joann's of similar quality. The floss was from the bottom of the bucket labeled "Floss and Fibers" in my craft space. I can see die cutting a bunch of these up and stitching up while on the next road trip. I also plan to try with fabric with some interfacing (bondoweb?) added.
