My daughter is a professional framer and she saves the scrap mat board for me. I glue 2 of these together, make a sleeve to match the purse lining and just place in the bottom of the purse. The stablizer can be removed for washing (if the purse is washable). If you have a local frame shop ask them to save these scraps for you.

What size do you use or need most often?
Where does anyone buy their plastic canvas?
WM quilt selling it, Michaels (our local one) only gets in 12 sheets a week and is telling the customers they can't order more than that!

I went boating with friends a couple of years ago, and my bag (which was a gift) got wet. In trying to dry it, I found the cardboard, which did not smell too good w/ the lake water & wasn't washable, either...
