    It's the same. I only did a trim on the pocket, 2 sided straps and embroidery on the back.

    Oh, the reason the sides go in is because I have the button fastened. I just folded them in on the sides. I think that's what you mean. Well, i think any way. LOL my friends say it's dangerous when i think. ;)

    Very cute. How much do you sell them for? The embroidery is great, very pretty.

    I sell them for between 25 and 45 dollars. Depends on embroidery and any special request. Most of them are 30. PM me if you would like more info. I have tons of fabric. 95% of my fabric is quilt shop.

    Your color choices are beautiful, really dresses up the denim and I love the varigated color on the butterfly. You did a really nice job.

    I just bought fabric to make this purse. Your covered button and two color straps are really nice details.
