Puffy Pleaty Purse

Happiest New Year to you all!

 

To me this purse is just cahh-yute - I don't think I have anything else to add. 

Except: I made it in 2 evenings and if you want the pattern for it please let me know in the ol' comments   :)

 

Puffy with pleats. This purse is roomy, but still very neat.  The handle deffo lifts the purse to another level don'tcha think?  The leather handle is this Hook & Poppa Handle and the purse frame is this Half-Moon Purse Frame.

Measures: 12 1/2in x 9in (31 1/2cm x 23cm)

 

I've used crocheted cotton lace to conceal the seam between the red and doggy fabric.  The lace came from a totally amazing trimmings market stall in Amsterdam - I'm sooo due another visit methinks.

 

 

 

If this purse is your kinda bag (see what I did there?)  um yeah, if you like this purse and you'd like to see a pattern for it please lemme know in the comments. 

 

In other news: I've already designed 6 bags for the new book (and they're rockin' - if I do say so myself).
