Finished purse with double-flap closure.
Purse with flap open for access.
Purse interior (no pocket).
Finished purse with blanket-stitching on the handle.
This is not a huge, 'daily needs' kind of purse...
...but was designed more for a fun night out...
...with room for a mirror, cell phone, lipstick and tissues.
Because I used both flaps for the closure...
...there's no internal pocket this time.
The double-flap design closes very tightly, though...
...and keeps things well-secured.
Instead of machine sewing the handle together like usual...
...I took the time to hand sew it with variegated white/grey/black embroidery floss.
Next time...
...more Christmas pillow covers!!
(Yeesh-will they ever stop?!?!?!)

love it, fabulous! love, riet
I don't like carrying a big bag anymore. Something to hold the bare necessities is a lot easier on our shoulders too. Cute little bag. :)
Thanks, Riet and Sandie!
Good morning buddy,
What do you mean that this isn't a "daily needs" kind of bag? I need it every day and have had more fun comments about it....It just makes people happy...Me included. It's definitely an attention getter...Everyone is so intrigued with the closure. I love it!!!!
BIg hugs,
Dawn
Dawn: Hahaha...and by 'attention', you mean that everyone looks at you funny when you walk down the street with it?!?!? :)
