This cheerful purse was a Christmas gift for my mom, and an improvement over the
last one I made. The layer of interfacing makes a world of a difference, and allows it to stand up on its own. For the lining I used
Lotta Jansdotter's Echo fabric in Brass Florine. Instead of elastic cord for the closure I sewed a loop out of canvas and pressed it flat to fit snugly. The carved wooden button is from my mom's own collection-- she was happy to see it put to good use!
I love my beautiful new purse and I have been putting it to good use. In it I keep my book,my kindle and my reading glasses. It's great having everything altogether.
