Double layered purse
Some time ago I made my first double layered purse. I saw an African one while browsing the internet and wanted to make my own, too.
It wasn't as easy as I thought but after some thinking I came up with a pattern and started cutting, pearl stitching and sewing.
This is what I made, not African at all but lots of pink and flowers:
It has two pockets to open, one in the upper part and the other in the lower part of the purse.
The lower one contains 8 slots for cards.
The part in the back is for papers and coins. The coins can be stored in a zippered pocket.
And that's me and the size of the purse. Perfect size for my things to fit in.
I really love the vintage fabric I used on it. I have quite a lot of vintage fabrics I got from various relatives and friends. They are so beautiful. Nowadays such pretty fabrics are expensive so I can't often afford to buy as many new ones as I'd like so it's good to have some for backup.
