It turned out pretty cute. It's a little smaller than I'd like, but it's a good purse. I added LONG handles so I can wear it across my chest....that was my favorite part of my china bag.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrk31JO2D0HhwLjs-S4OKmjKaNPXM9POGQAJoWZyEBra515FXLPwrO9XZHaV0eU6XBH0QHLfcLIKZ-CQKc_2cSZIbrgFY_kVsXQQ3_CyeBSWAbJ4OFfe3B4SMnmYwMecQ9GiANs_cCr-U/s400/purse.jpg)
This is the link we used to make our purses.
Not super impressed, but it was free, so I'm not going to complain.
wait! I am...it bugged me that she didn't tell us how much material to buy.
so, here's what I bought:
main: 1/2 yard
red polka: 1 yard (but I think I could've gotten away with 3/4)
fusible fleece: don't remember....but 1/2 yard would be enough
interfacing: 1 yard
Oh, and read the directions on the tutorial...don't skip steps :)

oh this is so cute! I have been keeping my eye out for a new purse... never thought about making my ideal purse. I do like the shape. I just might have to go to the fabric store and find the perfect fabric for the perfect purse!
