My nieces, daughter, and I had a mini retreat the past 4 days and we made the bow tuck purses. I admit the pattern needs more pictures, it would make it easier! But read the instructions several times and it is really easy if you do it one step at a time. The end result is worth it. Once you get the fusing and the quilting done it goes together fast. One thing we changed was just measuring the 2 1/2" square with a ruler and marking the corners with a pencil on each of the body and lining pieces and folding them to make the corners. We didn't feel making the template was necessary.
Have fun with it, it's not a big deal. :)
