{made} — purple star zipper bag Sewed this lined zipper bag for a friend. It was a fun little project that had instant gratification. I will probably be making many more of these to organize all my hobby materials I have laying around my office.  Pattern can be found in the book Sew what! Bags by Lexie Barnes.

{made} — cranberry clutch Super fast pattern and memorizable which is nice. Crocheted this up in a few hours and lined it with a heavy fabric, but it was too flimsy - the yarn was just too fine for this to have much shape. Tried a few options and ended up putting two pieces of flat quilt padding in the front and back of the bottom of the clutch between the yarn and the fabric. Worked like a charm, it has good form and will even protect the contents if dropped. I used a snap clasp to secure the flap. I knitted up a cute little coin purse to put inside too. Pattern available for free online.
