Purse Palooza :: YOUR TURN TO SEW!

pursepalooza2014

Now that all of the purse pattern reviews and giveaways are done (you can see the full list of reviews here), now it’s YOUR turn to sew! You can see the full list of prizes and contest rules here. You have until November 14, 2014 to sew your own bag and enter it into the contest! There are over 150 entries so far! Amazing!

I am so happy at the reception that Purse Palooza has received this year. I get e-mails throughout the year of people anticipating Purse Palooza starting, but I had no idea that it extended outside that. I was at Quilt Market this past weekend, which is an industry trade show, and many people came up to me complimenting me on Purse Palooza. I thought that was amazing! And I can promise that I’ll definitely be doing it again next year!

What did you think of this year’s series??

So get sewing and make a bag to enter! I can’t wait to see what you come up with!!

  1. It was terrific, Sara! This is my first Purse Palooza, so I’m just a tad overwhelmed at the variety of options out there, but I am definitely inspired to make some bags. I’ve already submitted a bag I made from one of your patterns, and I’m in the middle of making a different bag now. Thanks a bunch.

    It’s been great! I learned about new patterns and the reviews were awesome. Too bad that is coming to an end! I always enjoy making new bags and also seeing what everyone is making. Thanks a lot for the opportunity.

  3. I absolutely loved every day of Purse Palooza. It is also my first one and I am already looking forward to next year. I found the reviews informative and helpful and added far too many patterns to my wish list. I have entered a bag that I just finished and am on to some zipper pouches this week. Thanks for a terrific experience.

    This was fun and inspiring. Love all the good photos. Lots of ideas tucked away for later. I’m so glad you’ll be doing another one next year.

    This is my FAVORITE blog event of any given year! I’ve bought a lot f at terns I’ve wanted to try over the years based on the reviews submitted by your great group of Baggie friends. I’m soooooo glad you do this. And I AM entering bags this year. I have four so far, one of them I even designed myself!

    Another fabulous year of purses, Sara! There were lots of purses/bags featured this year that I’ve been wanting to sew — so great to be able to read all about the patterns here! Thanks a bunch for making this happen again.

    I really enjoy Purse Palooza! It’s awesome to see so many sewers with the same passion. It’s cool to see all the bags and to explore all the links! Sad that it is over!
