Our sponsors at the Fat Quarter Shop have generously donated an Ruthie Clutch pattern AND a $50 Gift Certificate to their online shop!
I just finished making myself one and I have to say... I love it!
Isn't it cute?!
This gorgeous fabric is from Alhambra II by Patricia Bravo for Art Gallery Fabrics
The body of the clutch is: Alhambra II Teal Mazy Bricks
The top band is: Alhambra II Aqua Moorish Blooms
The lining is: Alhambra II Garden Cashmere Cameo
I have to say I am not usually a huge fan of commercial patterns because they often confuse me more than anything and I get frustrated because the final project never turns out the way I want.
However....
this Anna Maria Horner Ruthie clutch pattern was an easy to follow pattern that was not too complex for a confident beginner to tackle. If you are into having a clutch purse that matches your shoes, outfit, etc... then I would definitely recommend you try this pattern. It is simple enough that you can make it out of any fabric you want and embellish with all kinds of beads, buttons, and other goodies. This would also make a great gift!
here is my mini review of the Ruthie Clutch pattern:
Strong Points:
-pattern is printed on newsprint instead of tissue paper so its nice and sturdy
-pattern lines are thick and bold so you can trace onto freezer paper and not have to cut into your original pattern
-few pattern pieces
-clear and easy to follow instructions
-glossary of basic sewing terms for beginners
-clear diagrams to help follow steps
- clutch purse is just the right size to carry all your essentials
Low Points:
- inserting top band interfacing is a little tricky
- technique on ruffling clutch is tricky, there are easier ways of doing it
Here are the giveaway details:
The Ruthie Clutch pattern and $50 gift certificate to Fat Quarter Shop giveaway will run until Saturday, July 31st at 11:59pm.
Winner announced HERE.
One random winner will be selected to win BOTH prizes and announced on Aug. 1st. So, please leave me a way to contact you in case you are the winner!

ReplyDeleteGreat give away!!! I'm a daily lurker on Fat Quarter Shop and would love to pick up a few fat quarters to begin my quilting obsession!
ReplyDeletetmholsworth@hotmail.com
Thank you for the chance to win. I would buy some fall fabrics to use for that bag pattern since fall colors are just my favorite.
ReplyDeleteGreat job on the purse! I know how commercial patterns can often be too detailed and complex, so I feel ya there.
ReplyDeleteI would use the $50 to birthday gift myself some Tufted Tweets and Far Far Away 2 to make a couple of nice quilts, and maybe a bag to match each! Fun!
that's a cute purse pattern. would make nice gifts. I like easy patterns that are quick.
ReplyDelete$50.00 to shop for whatever my heart desires? I'd probably look at the latest Christmas fabrics and gift ideas.
There are so many new lines coming out right now and I really don't know which one to buy first. It would - of course- go into a new quilting project, though I don't know if that would be a quilt. I also need new covers for my cussions. My living room is red in red and I am getting a bit tired of seeing red everywhere I look.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to get some fabric to make the clutch, but also to try and make a nice summer top for me.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance!
linedupuy(at)hotmail(dot)fr
I would get some jelly rolls, because I think they are super-pretty and I would love to try a quilt with one, but sadly all the nice ones are rather expensive!
ReplyDeleteHmm, what I would like to do is pick out some of my favorite fabrics. But the reality would be that I would drive myself insane with all of the choices. Put things in my cart only to remove them when I found something else. I would probably have to just randomly add stuff to my cart, then just enjoy what I ended up with!! Like a surprise.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the awesome giveaway!!!
ellyman23 at gmail dot com
Thanks for the great giveaway! Your Ruthie clutch is awesome. With $50 from Fat Quarter Shop I could get some of Kate Spain's 12 Days of Christmas which looks so cool!
ReplyDeleteHi! First of all, if I won the certificate I'd have to purchase some terrific fall fabric for your adorable clutch then I'd put any left over dollars towards Saltbox Harvest and Awesome projects I have planned. Thanks for this opportunity!!
ReplyDeleteIf I won the gift certificate I would purchase some of the vintage reproduction fabric so I could finally get going on a quilt for my daughter's bed.

ReplyDeleteI certainly would LOVE to win this giveaway!! Thanks so much for the chance. I'd definitely buy some fabric (maybe Fandango) and start on a quilt. I already have one in the works with Verna, and I love it.
ReplyDeleteA gift certificate would be great to help me acquire some Moda Woodland Holiday fabric.
ReplyDeletegraciescloset@msn.com
Actually I'm seeing your Ruthie Clutch, I'm thinking how beautiful and elegant it would be in black velvet with white satin on the upper part. Yes - I let my mind wander at times..LOL

She is having her bed mid high and wants an assortment of fun pillows to use it as a day bed during the daytime.

ReplyDeletehappy_haylee_3(at)hotmail(dot)com
I'm absolutely in love with the Dr. Seuss fabric, even though it hasn't come out yet. If I win, I'd try my absolute hardest to save it till the fabric comes out in September. But I might not make it 'cause I love most everything else they have too... Thanks for a chance to win!
ReplyDeleteI <3 me some awesome FQs!!!
ReplyDeleteI make my 2 girls (ages 2 and 4) sweet little skirts and tops out of them. :)
I would add some Freebird to my Wonderland stash, then patiently wait for It's a Hoot in October so that I can put it all together to make one totally rad Momo quilt.
ReplyDeleteCute clutch! Good pattern review too~ I always wonder if the pattern will be easy etc before I buy, now I know! Thanks! If I won, I'd be in the pattern section.. if the new fabrics didn't get me first! LOL Thanks for the chance!
ReplyDeleteI would buy fabric from the Dr. Suess line that is coming out. I would love to make my niece a quilt to match her nursery!
ReplyDeletegreat giveaway. If I were picked, I would got after Awesome line right now. My new fav.
ReplyDeleteI think I would spend the gift certificate on Christmas fabrics. There are so many cute lines out there now I would love to have some of and that would be the perfect way to get them!
ReplyDeleteSandy A
I'm all set to make some coordinating stuffed baby blocks - more for sucking and batting about than building things with.
ReplyDeleteMary
I would love to get some of the Pure fabric, or Fandango. Love those fabrics.
ReplyDeleteYour clutch is just darling...makes me wish for daughters or DILs. :-) Someday perhaps...I was sent here from Fat Quarter Shop as a heads up. If I were lucky enough to be the winner I already know that BLISS would be top of the list.
ReplyDeleteLove the purse! What would I do with the gift certificate-more fabric! You never can have enough fabric.
ReplyDeleteI like the paper doll series, to make some fabric doll possibly from the nice prints!
ReplyDeleteLove the Ruthie bag. My dad used to call me Ruthie! I would get more fabric for decorating my house. We moved here a month ago and this place needs some wall quilts and pillows and curtains and, and, and. Awesome giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI'm teaching myself to sew and I love the patterns at the Fat Quarter Shop. I would use $50 to get some patterns to further my knowledge and to get some materials.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great idea, by the way. :)
I would spend the $50 on either hungry caterpillar stuff (I am planning on eventually making a nursery collection that I will donate to auction for Seattle Children's Hospital and am slowly collecting it) or some Kate Spain 12 days of Chrismtas stuff all for myself...or buy impulsively and selfishly until the $50 is gone.
ReplyDeleteGreat giveaway, and love the bag.
ReplyDeletei have a new layer cake pattern that I'm dying to use..so would buy a layer cake to use it with.
Make some Fabric purchases of course! Something along the lines of New Kaffe F., Martinique, Modern Meadow, Meadowsweet 2, solids, or a new release... some for a quilt and some for a bag.
ReplyDeleteDefinately buy fabric if I win. I just started quilting so I need to build up a stash.
ReplyDeleteItsmelealee@gmail.com
If I won the $50, I would get some fabric for a Christmas quilt. The Ruthie purse is very cute! I really like Anna Marie Horner's fabric and patterns.
ReplyDeleteI would probably buy yet another fat quarter bundle!! That's such a cute pattern!
ReplyDeleteHow couldn't I spend $50 at the Fat Quarter Shop? Right now I'd probably use it to buy some of the batiks my mother-in-law loves and make her a wonderful quilt for Christmas.

Thanks for the great review of the pattern. Looks like a fun bag to have in many fabrics. A $50.00 gift certificate would cause me to spend hours looking and deciding, the fat quarter shop is sooooooo wonderful. It would be a tough decision. thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI would love to be entered in your giveaway! If I was so lucky to be the winner-I would be starting a quilt for this baby girl who is due out the end of November! She seems to kick really hard when I eat icecream or look at fabric. She definitely is a smart one!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!

I just taught myself how to sew, and have been having a blast making crayon rolls, count-down chain, and birthday crowns. I want to make a quilt, and winning that gift certificate, sure would help!
ReplyDeleteI am having Christmas at Thanksgiving in our house this year with family coming in from different parts of the county. I need to make a nice tablecloth and tablerunner. I had better start soon, or before you know it I'll be hearing the turkeys gobble! Wait, jya hear that?

I would likely spend it on one of the "Grab Bags." And I'd very likely put it into a quilt.

Since I have a doll themed business, I would have to go with the paper doll themed fabric.
ReplyDeleteI don't know what I would pick with the $50, but I would make the clutch for sure! I love the fat quarter shop...so much fabric, and unusual stuff you can't find anywhere else!!! Love it!
