Weekly Clip Give Away

Here is the first Clip from our weekly October clip give away.
To enter, simply leave a comment sharing who you think will be wearing it, if you win. Maybe is your daughter, granddaughter, niece, sister or even yourself. I have one of this and love it, it is neutral and goes with everything and it is pretty but not too big.
And if there is a clip from the "Clip of the day" page you would like a chance to win, just comment on it and let me know that you would like to see it on the give away. The ones with the most votes will make it to the give away.       
 
Check back next Wednesday to find out who won and to enter for a chance to win next week's clip.
Good luck to all!

Pant Leg Clutch

This was a really fun and easy to do project. And soooo inexpensive.


My husband had a pair of pants he "outgrew". And I didn't want to waist them. So I had two different ideas- the first one is for a denim pocket rug. So whenever someone in our home outgrows, or rips a pair of jeans (I do that a lot, thanks to my thunder thighs).
But the second idea was to use the pant leg to make a clutch. I sewed some yellow scrap fabric I had laying around to line the inside of the leg.
Next, I folded it in half to be able to make pockets and I used some pink ribbon to decorate the edges. 
Lastly, I made a rolled fabric flower with leftover denim to decorate the out side. Here is the tutorial for the flower.
I will be making another one with a more detailed tutorial, since I have another leg on the pants.

 
What do you think of this project? Any ideas to make it better?
