This turned out fantastic! I used Prairie Cloth to make this clutch and it turned out so nice.
So this is the High Tea Clutch reduced to 85%.
For the first two I didn't add a bow, so I wanted to try the bow out. Since the bow is pretty dramatic, I wanted to use a solid fabric for the bag.
Wool was my first choice, so I brought out all my wools. There aren't that many, so it was easy to take a quick look. But they just weren't speaking to me.
I try to pay attention to my sewing intuition. If it feels wrong, or just not quite right, I try not to do it. When I ignore my sewing intuition things just tend to not go as well.
So back into the stash I went. Further rummaging turned up this red Prairie Cloth from Moda. This one called to me that it was "the one".

This was my first time sewing something with Prairie Cloth and now I want to use it again ASAP. It has the perfect amount of texture to make a solid fabric bag interesting.
