Pocketbooks for Adina, Eva, and their dolls

Adina told me that for this year she and Eva wanted me to make them pocketbooks and matching bags for their American Girl Dolls. I was given lots of lace recently and decided to add that to the bags. Then I decided that the bags needed ribbon roses. I made the patterns myself cutting out the pieces from newspaper. The fabric for the outside of the bags was bought at Joann's, the lining I had, and the ribbon I also had. The bags were lots of fun to create because I had lots of lace and other materials to choose from. The girls seemed pleased with their bags which made me happy.
