That purse is fantastic. It's so pretty with the cork accents & I love all the zippers & storage areas. Thanks so much for the links to the pattern & the videos. I'm going to bookmark these for future references as this looks like something I want to make in the future. Your work is impeccable and is always beautiful. Your friends is going to love it.

This is the second purse I've made and I quite enjoy them as long as there is a video to follow.

WOW! I don't think I could ever make anything like that-it looks really hard! I'm impressed!

ShannonM...it wasn't hard. Watch the video of how to make it. She goes step by step and breaks everything down.

The one thing I did different was to turn it through the lining, not through the pocket. You have to squish it less that way.

Very nice. I have cork fabric and have not used it yet. I love making bags and so do the people who receive them.

Great job on the bag. The cork adds a nice touch.
