* YOU'RE A STAR* wristlet

I made this wristlet from pre-washed dark blue denim. Denim is a sturdy fabric, so I made sure to use a thicker needle - standard ones will break when sewing the layered end parts of the detachable strap! I have used a contrasting orange coloured thread typically used for jeans. The bag is fully lined with a green-beige cotton print and the front panel is embellished with sparkly stars. When I made it I had all those hard-working highschool graduates in mind who are in the middle of their finals right now! This star-spangled bag would make a fab little gift.

Was looking at this cute wristlet when my cousin happened to be peeping in as well. Now, thanks to you, she'd like me to find her a wristlet just like this one! ugh...hahahaha..I'm not sure anyone has enough talent to make something like that here... But she wanted the stars in pink stones. =)

Duni, Mommy said she loves it, she said it would be perfect just when she is going to a small get together and does not need to carry her wallet, etc. Also she said to say hello and sends her love, she is very far behind on blogging. Will you please tell Sammy hi for us?

((HUGS))

Oh, I'm glad my post about our "Fat Cat Box" helped somebody! It really works too...Lucy (the little cat) was a bit freaked out by it at first, and it's hard to keep her from eating his food too, but it's a start:)
