The purse from the previous post completely frustrates me with every glance I take at it. Therefore, I've moved on (for now anyway, I'm sure one day I will go back to the purse of frustration).
Anyhoo, I am pretty amazed that I was able to construct and sew this purse on my own. I am even more amazed that it looks like a purse!

Should the placement have been different?) and the closure (I decided to go with brown ribbon). I didn't really want to use velcro as I think that would cheapen the bag, and those little sew on snaps frustrate the hell out of me (is anyone sensing that I have absolutely no patience?).
There you have it!
