UR Priceless Day 1....

...and it is my day to share
my coin purse x 2.

First, thank you to our head cheerleader
Mme Samm at Sew We Quilt 
and to our hostess and cheerleader Katherine at
Sew Me Something Good
for all your hard work to make the UR Priceless blog hop happen!!

Second....let me tell you...I struggled with the first coin purse
broke the 8 wt DMC Perle cotton twice sewing the 
pouch to the frame....I changed to a beige
super strong thread they use to make seat belts.
yes....broke the needle,  snapped in half.
Frustrated...I told myself...make ONE, and your done...but
if you know me at all, I never buy just one of anything
yes I bought 3 purse frames!!

Here is my first coin purse and...I am pretty happy with it.
Luv the little hand made teddy bear....
a teddy bear artist with patience!! 
I decided to practiced patience...
and make another one....
it went together much better, faster too
but no seat belt thread in black...
I used the 8 wt Finca Perle cotton...worked great.
I luv this one too....
I will be making more of these little beauties.
I have more purse frames on order...
I'm looking forward to making more.
