    My daughter who is 33 says she is to young for a bowtuck purse so I got the Boho Baguette pattern from Studio Kat designs and wow - way beyound my sewing skills. It has 18 pattern pieces and I have been working on it for over a week now. So really not going to try it again once she picks out her material. So I was hopeing someone might suggest a pattern they have made that's a little more hip!! but not so involved.

    Why is she to young for a Bow Tuck? The material makes the tote. I love them and many young people are buying them.

    My thirty something friends seem to like the Newport Bag by Pink Sand Beach designs.

    Guess a lot depends on what style she is looking for. How big etc. Lots of patterns are available. Lazy Girl patterns are,for the most part, pretty easy to put together, and good directions.

    I guess since her mother has one for every season she wants somthing different. So I am sending her a list of sites to check out and she can decide on one. Thanks for everyone's help.
