A finished project & "Use it Up" Friday....

I finished my purse.  I like it. I also added 2 magnets to help keep it closed.
Here is the pattern that I followed, but I did the contrasting cuff different than she called for.  Oh, and I didn't use the d-rings as I didn't understand what that was all about (I'm not THAT good)  So I pulled out my sewing machine to put the handles on.  If you can't tell, there is filler cord inside the handles so they are nice and secure, which I really like!  I also made the handles a bit longer so that I can carry it in my hand and also over my shoulder where it is nice and close to my body.
Here's the link for the pattern:

 The pattern did not call for a liner but I dislike everything running amuck in my purse, so I personalized my liner.
 Here's USE IT UP Friday night!
Homemade mac-n-cheese with broccoli.  I think I made it when Mon Sheri' was here in November.  I forgot to put the melty cheese in it, but the flavor is great.  I only ate 1/2 of the small bread pan so I also have lunch for tomorrow!
