My Olympic Projects
The blue clutch purse and the teal clutch purse were made during the swimming event. Hello Kitty and the shoulder bag(mine) were made during the women's gymnastics. Red Heart Super Saver was used in making 4 of these. Cotton yarn was used for Hello Kitty. The shoulder bag has Claret for the front of the bag and Claret Fleck for the back.

Thank you libertylady64. They are Christmas gifts, with the exception of the shoulder bag. I have been using the shoulder bag and have gotten more compliments on it. Seems people are intrigued by the crocodile stitch. It's nerve-wracking to learn at first but when you get the hang of it, you can almost do it in your sleep.

No wonder that you got many compliments on the shoulder bag, it looks really great. Now I am interested to learn the crocodile stitch. So many ideas, so little time.
