Round Purse – Free Sewing Tutorial
This is a small purse that fits in the palm of your hand, which could become the perfect accessory for a kid’s outing. It is also ideal as a portable cosmetics pouch. The fabric used for this bag is a nostalgic textile designed by illustrator Sanae Sugimoto. The slightly thin cotton linen has a delightful natural texture.
