These are 2 little purses I have made. They are 17.5inches square and then folded to make this shape. You can use them for whatever you fancy. I think I have also added these sometime ago

Suggest you search "Origami Purses" in your Search. There are many different ones available.

Love those. Ladies at my quilting group have something like this with sewing bits in it. Will google and look to find as I would like to try and make one. Thanks for showing

Thank You karenjay for finding these. I had a quick look for something but gave up. The embtreasure and the keepsakecrafts sites are the same as mine. My original pattern was folded again but I thought it made the pockets too small.
