Hello and happy Monday from sub-zero Minneapolis! Hope you had a nice weekend, I'd say mine was nice-ish because even though I hate being trapped inside during this long stale part of winter, I did manage to tackle a couple sewing projects! So... WIN (slash "nice-ish")!
First up to share is an update to my DIY Leather Zippered Clutch tutorial from last year. The new twist- Angled corners!
Not gonna lie, it's a pretty simple update honestly :) Glad that I went ahead and tried it though because I still use my zippered clutch/pouches all the time and after a year, it's pretty nice to have something a bit different to make the ol' zippered clutch look new and fresh!
The DIY steps start the same as the original tutorial (click here for those steps!) but instead of sewing the rectangular shaped corners, you'll will make a 45 degree angle...

... and then cut off the excess/triangle corner piece. Easy-peasy!
Like I said, not rocket science or anything, just a simple switch-up to something I've loved for the past year! They say change is always good, right?
In case you missed them, below are a few pics along with post links for the previous Zippered Clutch tutorials in case you missed them...

Hope to share the tote bag I've been working on next! Fingers crossed it doesn't end up being a huge FAIL... eek! Wish me luck!
What do you think of the new clutch/pouch shape?
What new twist/update would you have done instead?
