Every year I make homemade Christmas gifts for female friends, cousins and aunts for Christmas. Just couldn't think up a good knitting project so I dusted off my (new) Pfaff sewing machine and constructed a purse pattern idea borrowed from a knitting meetup friend, Libby. Libby explained a girlfriend of hers made up the pattern and sewn them for all her friends. Of course, I had to make one for myself in cowboy boot material.
