Your clutches would be easy to stuff into a backpack. Small things that aren't fussy or breakable. Also, if they can wear it, all the better! (rally-goers wear lots of headbands/scarfs/belts)<BR/><BR/>Best wishes on your sale!<BR/>Jody <BR/><BR/>JodyGumbo Lilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02747138637571716591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9101652560774429919.post-14644423306106531142008-04-17T22:15:00.000-05:002008-04-17T22:15:00.000-05:00I was just reading how clutches were back, and try...I was just reading how clutches were back, and trying to imagine myself with something that... small.

As for the skulls, the teens really do love them. I had some "Day of the Dead" fabric sitting around the house, and the first thing both of my college age boys wanted when I learned to quilt was a 'Day of the Dead blanket'. So yes, I can pretty much guarantee that they will sell.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9101652560774429919.post-56625123591960508232008-04-16T18:26:00.000-05:002008-04-16T18:26:00.000-05:00I love them.

The ones I make are similar to your clutches, I think, except they open on the side an have little card slots. Different closures can make them a little more masculine too, which opens up your selling power, especially for charity!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9101652560774429919.post-53840102504768603942008-04-16T14:07:00.000-05:002008-04-16T14:07:00.000-05:00I love the idea of the clutches.

What about wristlet purses as they ride along on their cycles. Actually... you couldn't go wrong with scarves made from Goth fabrics. They wear them on their heads, their necks, their wrists, etc. You could package them in sets of 2-3 and tie them with a ribbon.<BR/><BR/>I'm off to Jenny Craig this afternoon. But, I'm totally uninspired as far as creating something. Need to read through your Marie Claire mags. I am sketching a bird pillow for Wendy's guest room but haven't done anything with the stitching yet. Thanks for your help, though.<BR/>Hugs,<BR/>JoniYummers!https://www.blogger.com/profile/03214283232145121905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9101652560774429919.post-85496616400011473382008-04-16T11:37:00.000-05:002008-04-16T11:37:00.000-05:00June, I admit I haven't made items for a charity t...June, I admit I haven't made items for a charity though I often donate items for them to sell in their fundraisers. But I want to say I will immediately being Googling to locate that book you mention: I have been looking for a simple fold over clutch just like this! Though I don't get much time for crafts (since I'm pursuing other creative pursuits) I do like to make a few items now and then. THIS is something I REALLY want and hope to make. Thanks for letting us know where to find the pattern. I love the ones you've made.<BR/><BR/>DianeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9101652560774429919.post-57243466992397471462008-04-16T11:36:00.000-05:002008-04-16T11:36:00.000-05:00Hi, I am preparing for a craft sale in November.

Please report back on how the sale went and such. I am looking forward to crafting for charity.

My daughter adores things with that motif, and she is not a Harley person ..lol! I know it seems strange, but I guess that is a youthful design. :-) A Japanese artist made it very popular textile design, I think.<BR/><BR/>The very best of luck raising funds for a very worthy cause. I have an autistic nephew who participated many times in the Special Olympics and it was very good experience fro him and my brother and sister-in-law.<BR/><BR/>Hugs, PatPat @ Mille Fiori Favoritihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08922525910685129822noreply@blogger.com
