I enlarged the reversible purse on Martha Stewart's website at my daughter's request. This is a fast and fabulous gift or item for a craft show. Just download Martha's pattern & enlarge it. I taped 4 pieces of copy paper to make the bigger pattern , and made one strap longer. You put the long strap through the short strap, and wear it on your shoulder or arm. Takes 3/4 yd fabric of 2 pleasing designs and you get enough scraps for 8 7" squares. I use 7" squares for Quilts for Kids. Try it for Mother's Day or for a special graduate or how about (for a change?) you make something for yourself!

I made many of those yrs ago for my mom to give to her senior friends when they go on their bus trips...they can keep them on their wrists and not worry about leaving it somewhere...they are grat fun to make

Have you done the zipper rose? Another big hit. Glue gun, long metal zippers

Would you please tell me how much you enlarged the pattern from the Martha Stewart site?

Your fabric choices are outstanding! I like your idea:-)

Thanks....
