silk scarf evening bag

it's in the bag!

flea finds:
1. two square silk scarfs (app 15" X 15")
(suggestion: one print one solid)
2. one pretty button (any size)

other materials:
1. Wonder-Under Transfer Web
2. needle
3. thread
4. ribbon
5. iron

directions:
1. make both scarfs the same size square (app 15"X15")/
(make sure the outter scarf has the finished edges)
2. apply Wonder-Under Transfer Web to the wrong side one scarf
3. iron wrong side of other square scarf to the Wonder-Under Transfer Webbed scarf (this makes the silk sturdy and double sided)
4. fold the square scarf into an envelope
5. slip stitch the seams (same places where an envelope is glued)
6. attach a pretty button on the bag near the bottom and attach a small piece of ribbon to the underside of the flap near the "envelope" point
7. iron the "envelope" lid making a fold for the flap
8. ENJOY!
