Packer Cammo Purse

For those that want to be a little less traditional, but still show their team spirit, I created this "cammo" purse out of fabric I found in Green Bay. I added a larger "G" so there would be no mistaking it was a Packer purse. My DH said he would use it for an ammo bag. NOT :-)

Packer Purse

I love having a Packer purse to carry around to show I love my team. I only have totes left as I have given away all my purses. I found this "tiger stripe" fabric when I was in Green Bay in cotton duck and figured it would make a great purse. I hand quilted some of the logos, lined it and added the Packer "G".

It was very cool to go on the Packer Players Cruise and get my picture taken with the players & families.

Tips to make our lives easier

1-Safety pins work as quick stitch markers



2-Use a dental floss threader to thread beads onto your worsted weight yarn. Much easier than trying to make sure the hook will go through the bead.



3-Buy an extra pencil pouch next time you are in the store. A zipper pouch is perfect for keeping all your small supplies together--scissors, crochet hooks, tape measure, etc.



4-Use sticky notes to mark your place on your pattern. This has saved me from getting lost, as I am prone to do.
