UPDATE!

Here is the bigger version. Unfortunately the new Kam Snaps which the postman brought today, are not long pronged so these popped off as soon as I unfastened it from round my wrist. Glad I only risked one!

I wondered if it was possible to make a zipped purse with a zip that didn't go the full width.
It is.
This was intended to have snaps on the ends to fasten around my wrist, but it isn't quite long enough. Back to the drawing board!

The top one looks like the one in a wallet or purse area make to drop a few coins in. I think you have it correct. The bottom one also looks great with cute fabric but my eyes can't find the zipper pull to open or close it.

It's roughly central to the length of the zip.

I think it's the inside?

Looks nice as it is. I especially like the rounded corners, my square ones never turn out exactly as I want them.

Looks good to me, you could sew a placket onto each side and put the snaps on, G

I love the diagonal stripes. Your mind never quits does it? Always thinking of a new and better way. I think that is wonderful to come up with all these neat ideas/Lillian

Wow looks so neat I thought there were 2 different purses until I read the discussion on Smokey 12"s comment.
Looks good anyway.

I don't know what the 'ttt' is but this is a cute idea. I don't know how your mind comes up with all these projects.
