Metal Frame Clutch Bag Sew Along

I want to make my first metal frame clutch bag.  I have never made one and I don't know anyone who has.   So I would like some help here.  I have the frames, finally got the glue, and now am ready to proceed.  

Here is the frame that I have....



And the Guttermann Glue...............









I have an instruction sheet that I downloaded from one of the crafting sites.

Next step is to pick the fabrics.  I have made three selections (fabric I am willing to sacrifice to catastrophe).

Here is where you come in.....here are the fabrics, you make the selection by entering the letter in the comment section.  As soon as I have 25 votes the majority fabric will be the one I use.

Then....I will make the bag and photograph and describe what I do.....tutorial-style.  This will NOT abe a tutorial, but a group experience.   If you want to learn how to do this, check back when you get the update info and see how 'we' are doing.

OK....here are the fabrics (drumrolllllll)...

  2. I like fabric #3 the best! Can't wait to hear how this goes. I've been wanting to make one of these also but haven't had time to figure it out yet, or get the supplies.

    Merry Christmas!
