Another purse - not a zip in sight! While I was pressing the zipped purses, I folded one in half and realised that the shape would lend itself to a purse with a flap. This sent the engineering part of my mind into overdrive and it came up with this. It is made in one hooping, fully lined (no raw edges inside) and took about 5 minutes to stitch out!

This looks realy nice Sue, with a longer String, bigger Kids could use it as Lunchmoney Purse.

Nice...put your thinking cap on...would be fantastic with a zipper across the top for change and maybe a key... and then a credit card flap in front...an all-in-one for on the go...nice job!

Great thinking. You are on a roll again. I find the "no additional sewing required" the most challenging part of the engineering process, there's always at least one 2 inch seam to be stitched if I want no seams showing.
Is there anything left for which you haven't made a zipped bag :)
I've used most of my remnants to make either bags/purses or (lately) notebook covers. I now have to progress to larger projects that need fat quarters (the quilter's kind).

This one still has that tiny bit of hand sewing!
I think there are some more possibilities yet.

No zip this time - just the button.

Nice design for those that don't want to deal with the zippers.

Sue, I love it more than the once with the zipper.
The same purse, quilted in the hoop, would also be fantastic.
If you like, this could be a new challenge for you ... :)
Love Anabela
