That's amazing! I need to try something like that with plastic canvas! All I've done so far is magnets and phone charms lol!

Thank you so very much for all the love :grin: I will gladly share the patterns I use with you all. Believe it or not, most of the gaming patterns that I use come from the walkthrough for "Mario Paint" for Super Nintendo. It is based on coloring blocks and makes it very easy to transfer the pattern to canvas. The purses are relatively simple to make. You can buy the pre-cut canvas at most hobby shops. Here is what it looks like when I first start.

And this is the finished product. I used some gold satin to line the inside of the purse and give it that extra "Zelda" feel. I will post the pattern once I get it scanned on my computer :link

Woo!! Looking forward to that pattern. I was at the craft store tonight and almost bought that purse shape, even before I saw that you had posted this! ^_^ I have a friend who would LOVE this.

I've never seen pre-cut plastic canvas like that before...

You've opened my eyes. Truly, that purse is epic.

These are GORGEOUS!
I wish I knew how to make stuff like that.
I'm looking forward to seeing more of your work, please keep it up!
The stitches look amazing.

The purse is adorable, though for me it wouldn't be very functional (I carry a lot of stuff!). And I love the picture frame, thought about doing something like it, but so much as I hate stitching on plastic canvas it never went further than a thought.
