As many of you know purses are my absolute favorite things to design. There is just something about the challenge of the architecture of the bag that makes my creative wheels buzz at full speed. I've been toying around with the idea of a pattern of the month club type program and doing one for purses is the obvious choice to launch it!
And so, without further delay I present to you:

What others are saying about Drew's purse designs!
Here's how it works. Sign ups will be limited, patterns will begin to arrive in July 2010. You will receive a printed never before seen crochet purse pattern each month for a year for a one time payment of $120. The patterns will be signed and numbered and they will be retired at the end of each month. You will never see them published anywhere else. And hey, you never know when some bonus pattern(s) will be thrown in sometime during the year just for fun!

I love purses too, but I find them difficult to create and design. They never come out useful the way I wish they would! Maybe I'm just doing something wrong... Reply to this
