I've had this Half Purse Template forever but hadn't done much with it. 

So.... I gave it to Darla and she made 2 cute samples to share!

The 1st project you might recognize as a larger version of my "Down the Middle" Template.  Watch the video for all kinds of projects that you can make with this template, too - just larger!

The 2nd is a cute multi-pocket purse made from some decorator fabric.  So cute how she placed the fabric on the outsides!

Can't wait to show this one on camera so you can see the multiple pockets.

What's fun about a template like this is that you can go almost anywhere with it!

You can use embellished fabrics - those already embroidered or with 3 dimensional flowers or ribbons or whatever to be the star.  I'm thinking of going in my closet to find all those embellished clothes that don't fit anymore!

Or if you have an embroidery machine, then you've got lots of space to get creative!

If you're a quilter and have some leftover blocks, can piece them together and turn them into a quilted purse.

Or use canvas, blue jeans, outdoor fabric - even faux leather or vinyl to make a simple, stately purse.

No video or directions with this one yet but I know you'll have so many ideas - can't wait to see what you do!

Like all of my templates, this has my No Slip Backing so that cutting is always accurate.  The template comes etched but not highlighted so if you like that idea, pick up on of my Metallic Markers here: Metallic Template Marker – Winner Designs (winner-designs.myshopify.com)
