I started working on a tote bag to carry my Bible and hymn book to church. I thought I would make it all ruffly, but did patchwork pockets on it instead and opted for a ruffled flower. I started it last month and was almost finished when I found out we got the rental house I wanted and had less then two weeks to move! Of course that meant the bag had to be put on hold and packed up along with the rest of my sewing room! All I need to finish though is the lining and handles. I made my ruffled rose today. I love ruffled flowers! It is just a simple rose, I did not want to detract too much from the patchwork pockets.
I hope to finish the bag this weekend so that I can get my tutorial written up for you on how to make the bag, but I started sorting my fabric by color and this is what my room looks like now! It's a mess and I am still sorting! As ya'll know, I just moved in last week.
Here is my tutorial on how to make a ruffly purse.
Here are directions on how to make a ruffly dress for a little girl, it is super simple!
Here are some ruffly aprons I have made.
I have lots more ruffles I have made, I like to add them to everything! I hope you have enjoyed some of my ruffles, now go visit everyone else's ruffles today also!
Here is the lineup for today's blog, be sure to visit everyone!

Well done on the new tote and the previous ruffle projects! Welcome to the blog hop bunch and I hope you will join in again. Hopefully the next time you will feel more at home in your sewing space!
Your bag is really pretty... and love the flower.
What a great selection of ruffle projects:)
Your ruffled flower on the bag is so nice. I like the bag itself. And thank you for sharing all your ruffled projects.
Your yellow flower is perfect! I don't think it's too dark and the yellow with black is quite striking.
I adore the yellow rose on the bag. It is delightful. It just shouts spring without being too much. I hope your move is progressing smoothly. I've lived in the same house for almost 35 years and have no plans to move. We remodeled most of the downstairs and recarpeted the whole house, so... Thanks for participating and the great inspiration.
