National Sewing Month – Ruffled Wristlet Project

V.I.P by Cranston has submitted this great project for National Sewing Month. The Ruffled Wristlet is perfect for  carrying essentials for a run to the market or a morning of errands, but can do double duty as a darling little bag for a night on the town. We love it!

Our thanks to the folks at Cranston for supporting National Sewing Month.
