I have been making purses for my daughters in law and one of the things they like that I include is a check holder. Most of us only us those checks once in a blue moon so it is nice to have a separate holder for them so that they don't get ruined. I also include a spot for the credit/debit cards and drivers license in the flap so that if they want to go for a quick shopping trip without their whole purse that is all they need to grab. The other things I include are a coin purse, cosmetic bag etc. They have been well received and are so quick and easy to make. I use velcro to hold the pieces closed.
