It is all straight stitching. Just follow the directions and you'll do fine.

BTW, I am doing a class on this purse at my house on the 19th, if you would like to join us here in Jacksonville, FL. :-D

You will be surprised...they are easier than it looks. Just make one and you'll see. I bet you can't make just one!!!

It's a deal. I'll be there. I'll bet the weather is better there than here. lol

Ok, I started mine today - I am still doing all the quilting after I finish that I think it will work up quickly. The tutorial on this site saved me - otherwise I would still be staring at the directions - trying to make heads or tails of it. Will take some pics when I get done.

I found the tutorial confusing. She shows the completed steps, but not how she got to it.

After you make the first one it is a breeze. They are fun to make and you can do so many different things with them. My bow tuck bags are the ones I get the most compliments on. I'm working on one right now. I decided to add a little pocket on both ends maybe for cell phones, pens & pencils, umbrella, etc. Good luck!!

you can do it - just read directions and work slowly -

You can do it (I sound like Tony Little). I was scared too. My husband was my cheerleader. I have made several since.

Ok I have wanted to do one too as I have seen some fantastice purses here made by you all. But I am not a sewer so am scared, heck I can't even sew a button on nice.
