i modified her a little~ the curvy clutch has darts in the bottom, but holly has none.
she is constructed of 100% cotton~ michael miller's ginger blossom on the outside and amy butler's cherry dot inside (is that allowed? mixing designers? well hrmph, i did it anyway!)
so here she is, all gussied up and festive, ready to assist you with your holiday shopping. she will hold your cash, gift cards or coupons. she can keep keys, sunglasses or lip balm from getting lost at the bottom of your bag. or maybe she will make a special appearance in someone special's christmas stocking!
if you would like to give holly a good home simply leave me a little comment on this post and share with me what you would carry in this little clutch!
and, for those of you who sew, michelle at keyka lou has generously offered one of you any 2 patterns from her shop! you can make your own little curvy clutch, or a pixie handbag like the one i blogged about recently. or both! the choice is yours! visit keyka lou's etsy shop and then come back and let me know which patterns are your favorite.
feel free to enter both giveaways~ you will need to leave 2 seperate comments to do this. please make sure i am able to contact you through your blog or e-mail. i am only able to ship holly to US adresses only, but the patterns are sent via e-mail so anyone is welcome to enter. i will randomly choose 2 winners on sunday december 7th.
for more fabulous handmade giveaways visit sew, mama, sew for a list of bloggers participating in GiVeAwAy DAY!
HaPpY Handmade HoLiDaYs!

«Oldest ‹Older 401 – 556 of 556At Keyka Lou's shop, I think I like the Pixie and the Small Satchel--heck, I like them all!
you sure can mix fabrics!love it:)wow pick me pick me:)nice to meet you!
I'd put in my little purse mirror, some lipstick, my I.D. and some cash for a night out on the town.
I'd try my hand at the curvy clutch.
What a sweet little purse. Just big enough to carry my keys and little coin purse!
yay - gotta love a giveaway! I am running my own little one - so lets hope what goes around comes around! I would love the curvy clutch pattern from keyka Lou (if it looks as good as your when im done!) the half moon handbag also looks great!
Great clutch! I'd love to fill it up! Thanks for linking to the patterns.
please count me in! I would carry my cards in there. So CUTE! valerieann118atmsndotcom
I would use this to keep my coupons and cash in my diaper bag. I don't have a purse anymore, and things tend to drift to the bottom of the diaper bag, never to be seen again. This would be great (and beautiful)!
I love the Pixie Handbag and would love to sew one up myself. Thanks for the giveaway.
Great colours!!
off to look at the patterns!
Merry Christmas

Oooh....please also count me in for the pattern giveaway. I really like the clutch pattern.
Thanks for a generous giveway.

I really love this. It's beautiful.
So cute.
Ahhh do I have to choose??? I love them both.... I have been wanting a clutch to carry when I just need a few things or on the days I'm not doing full grocery shopping and only need a few coupons with me... Or to carry my jewery with me when away and not leave in hotal rooms...
I would like to try and use it but probably stick it in my purse with goodies in it, small things to keep track of!
I would put my cell, my keys and my credit card in here, and carry it away.
Hello from Barcelona!! count me in!! Thank you! Txell
love the bag! what a great idea. thanks for your generosity
Oh how fabulous!! I was just thinking I needed to get something like this! Who wants to hide this in a purse?! I have to go check out these patterns now!
patterns: love the half moon handbag and the city tote! and regardless of winning, i've found my new favorite etsy shop!
Oh, I love that bag Erika! The colors, the shape, and the job you did. Fabulous!
I love all her patterns! My favs are the curvy clutch and the business card wallet though! So cute!
That clutch is beautiful! I love the fabrics you chose!
I love the pixie handbag and the checkbook wallet!
Love it!

Holly is so sweet. I would carry my little bit of lipgloss and my Obalma in her of course!
oooh, my phone, my ipod and my lip balm! i adore polka dots...and i would be so dang chic too.
My favorite patterns are the Pixie handbag and the Halfmoon Handbag. I can't wait to see your new bag and *you* tomorrow. xoxo
Your work is simply fabulous!
I would like to say FIRST: thank you for participating in this little giveaway 'movement' -- my universe has expanded lately in the whole etsy/handmade movement and how it has become much more accessible globally (I've always tried to buy local/handmade/homegrown items).
Anyway, thank you again - by participating, you've done a huge thing. I really believe this will have an amazing impact on a world where corporate greed is running rampant!
As to what I would carry in this absolutely ADORABLE clutch? If I decided not to give it to my sons absolutely precious girlfriend that I love so dearly for a Christmas pressie, I would put my great raspberry lipstain and gloss, my mascara, my drivers license, my bankcard, my keys, and some personal info cards I have a 'vision' of creating.
Of course receipts and other whatnots will end up in there eventually, but for the time being I will imagine it as being new and fresh and having no clutter whatsoever!
Have a beautiful holiday season. May it be filled with all the happiness, peace, and love you can imagine!

Love that Holly clutch. I'd stick a few wallet necessities and some lip gloss, and head out for a couple of Mama only hours at the bookstore of coffee shop.

Love those bags! I like the Pixie handbag and the City tote. Thanks agian!
"Box Wallet" and the check book wallet are lovely but it was hard for me to choose...I love EVERYTHING in that shop!
If I had this clutch I would actually have a pretty clutch to use for fancy dates with my husband!
I would love to give holly a good home. I think I would put my knitting essentials in it among other things.

That is gorgy!
That cute little clutch looks perfect for my lip gloss, cell phone and idea note pad (you never know when inspiration will hit!)
So very very cute!
OMG Keykalou has got the CUTEST patterns on her site. I am soo bookmarking it.
These two were my faves:
Pixie Handbag-http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=18215015
and her
City Tote- http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=18179648
and I just realized that she lives in Oregon as I do!
I like the halfmoon handbag and the city tote.
I would love to give Holly a home.
Thanks for this give-away and the other (I entered it above).
Oh so cute! I could put all my goodies in there.
what beautiful things you've made! thanks for sharing with blogland. heading to take a look at the patterns now. happy holidays!
and those patterns! my goodness so cute. one for a passport! i'm thinking some airplane fabric :)
Oh, please put my name in the draw. What would I carry in it -- all the things I need when I go out without the baby... so keys, lipstick, wallet and no diapers!
Love Holly and would love to make her mine!
Gorgeous Patterns-love the city tote and the pixie handbag!
I love the fabrics you used in the little clutch. If I'm lucky enuf to win, I will add a strap & send it on to Shelley at This Eclectic Life to use in her Medicine Bag project.There it will get filled with 3 trinkets that have stories attached. The bags will be given to kids with cancer. annmarie
Pick me, pick me....
The prize looks fab!
Cute, cute, cute. I think a chapstick, a few dollars and maybe a debitcard would fit well in here.
I just love the fabric that the clutch is made out of. I would carry something that I use a lot in it so that everyone could see me using such cuteness!
What a nice giveaway! Many thanks and happy holidays! I would carry girlie girl stuff in the clutch...especially when toting a bag.
I'd also love the patterns, enter me please!
Lovely clutch, i would put my keys and mobile in it with my favourite lip gloss.
The patterns are fab, I think I would choose the half-moonbag and the pixie bag. But then there's the City Tote!
Erika,
I love the pattern for the city tote...I homeschool and have an infant so there are lots of things I could use that bag for. :)
Rachel
Adorable clutch. Id probably carry my cell, keys, and coupons in it.
http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=18209009
This Pixie Handbag is my fave pattern I think.
the bright contrasting patterns are awesome.
i'd carry a little handmade felt notebook, my favourite burts bees, and some hair ribbons.
I love that fabric on mini tote bag. A perfect bag as a portable sewing kit for on road... maybe contain some needles, threads, buttons, small scissors, few generic buttons, patches, etc to mend up something brokem really quickly. Or it can be a festive first aid kit tote.
I like the pixie clutch pattern and the luggage grips. Thanks for the offer.
I would keep chap sticks and such in it but I'd likely lose it to my tween so it won't matter. :)
ooh, that's easy - a few dollar bills, my license and credit card, that's all a girl needs!
beautiful job erika! and no, there was no faux pas with the mixing of the fabrics! LOL
ok, what would I carry in it? lipbalm, maybe my checkbook and debit card. and probably a knitting needle or crochet hook for when I am out and about on the run with family and working on a project.
for the patterns, I would choose:
pixie handbag
small satchel
What a great little clutch! I haven't carried anything smaller than a suitcase since I adopted my girls (just kidding!) Thanks for the opportunity to win!
For the patterns I would love the Pixie purse or the tote bag. Thanks again!
She is so beautiful! I would definitely have to use her to go grocery shopping and carry my wallet and any coupons I might have.
I think the Holly clutch would be perfect for me...especially since my name is Holly! I'd put my phone, ID, credit card and lip gloss in it and take it out with me!
and I'd love the envelope clutch pattern...I've been eyeing it up for awhile now on keykalou's etsy page!
Sweet clutch :) I would put in some lipstick or gloss/chapstick, debit card, cash, a few postage stamps, my license/ID and a couple more things I need-depending on where I am headed.

I loveeeee
Thanks for the chance to win!
lovely!!! count me in~*~
The clutch is beautiful!
I LOVE this adorable clutch, and great color combo!! It would fit perfectly in my diaper bag, to help carry my money and such in there, without bringing my whole wallet! Very cute! :)
Thanks, Kelly
I just checked out Keyka Lou's Etsy shop, what great patterns she has! I love the pixie handbag, curvy clutch and business card wallet! They are all SO cute!
Thanks again,
Kelly
Mixing two designers is totally ok--in my world at least! The clutch is so cute and really a great size. I can't wait to see what the other Keyka Lou patterns look like...
Wow! Thanks for turning me on to Keyka Lou--I really like all the patterns, but I have to say that the Envelop Clutch and the Small Satchel are at the top of my list.
I am the 518th comment! WOW!!!
I love how you mixed your fabrics, especially the patterns! :)
I'd love the project tote pattern and love the fabric you used, would be great to carry my cupons in!
Very nice! Please enter me! Thanks for doing this!
What a delight of clutch.
Oh my Holly is gorgeous :) But as I am in Australia, my two favourite patterns are the City Tote and the Pixie Handbag.
Thanks for a great giveaway :)
My pens are always rumbling around in my bag--that's what I'd keep in the clutch! thanks for the opp!
pixie handbag and business card wallet! excellent!

Please enter me in the Keyka Lou pattern drawing. My faves are the half moon handbag and the city tote.
This was made for me, right? (My name is Holly after all!) So cute. I would fill it up fast with tissues, maybe some snazzy new lipstick.
Wow, that's gorgeous! You are very talented.
I also love the half moon handbag pattern. Cute!
Looks wonderful!!
gorgeous handbag! i love it :) i'll have to go find that pattern!
I love this!
I wouldn't put anything in it. I think it's like a piece of art and I would display it. Judy
I love love love the city tote!!
So cute! Thanks for doing this!

Holly is gorgeous! Thanks!
so adorable, crossing my fingers, and thank you for participating!!
whoops! forgot to say what I'd use it for... definetly thinking to hide my ugly check book (still using the one the bank gives you), so this would spice it up!!
I love holly - such quality work. I will give her a good home :)
I hope I'm not too late!! It's adorable.

That is so pretty! I would love to carry that around, it is the perfect size for my zippy pouch, pirate mints, and cell phone :)
I LOVE the Pixie handbag pattern from her shop! All of them look great! :)
I would most likely use this little clutch to store little items needed for my crochet. Thanks for the giveaway and congrats on all the comments. Wow!
What a lovely gift! Thanks for the give-away!
What a pretty little clutch! I'd use it to keep my shopping list and coupons handy when I'm out shopping.
My favorite patterns are the City Tote and Curvy Clutch.
I love the checkbook cover and the city tote, they are so cute. I hope I win!
Ooo! I'm not too late after all! I would carry my chap stick (to which I am admittedly addicted), and probably some much less exciting things like money and maybe a tissue or two. It is so adorable - you've done such a great job! (and the fabrics are perfect - melding designers; I like it!)
...And, from KeykaLou's giveaway, I really love the curvy clutch and the city tote. Okay, who am I kidding - I loved them all! But you said pick two, so there we are.
Thank you so much for this giveaway! It's been so much fun, has it not?
Cute bag! I love it.
