I was looking around on Pinterest the other day and I saw a photo from the Instagram feed of Seker Etamin, which is a really cute idea for using a bit of cross stitch.
It looks like the flamingos were stitched toward the top of a rectangle of canvas that was then folded (and probably lined with other fabric) and stitched into a bag with a zipper closure and a fun tassel zipper pull.
There are no instructions on the post but I think someone with basic sewing skills could manage (search online for a pattern for a zipper clutch or makeup bag) and it would be a great gift idea or a way to show off your stitching skills on a project you can use every day.
