Patty P, I've made several Bow Tucks bags, 1 Amy Butler bag and now this bag. I find the Bow Tucks fairly easy to make and this one wasn't too bad either. The Amy Butler bag drove me crazy! It had pattern pieces like for sewing clothes. I know when I made the first Bow Tucks bag that I couldn't figure out a certain part of the instructions I found a Bow Tucks tutorial here the board. I don't know if it's still there, but look in the tutorials here and you may find a purse tutorial there. Debbie
