Thanks. From home depot :lol:
No really, I did get a retractable tape measure and got the idea of making a large purse from a pattern I saw. Here it is.

I read about these tape measure closures years ago, but had forgotten about them until I saw this pattern at my last guild meeting.

You need a good heavy duty one.

There is a free tutorial on tatteredgarden.com for the snap bags with the metal tape measure enclosure

I have made small change purses with the metal tape measure and wondered if it would work for a purse. Thanks for sharing. I am inspired to make one. However, I think I need a pattern.
