Download pattern at lola...again's blog. Important I forgot to mark that the purse handle (one of the short sides) needs to be placed on a fold.
To make this purse I started with 2 different half yards of fabric, and 1 yard of fusible pellon. I had some of all of it left over...not sure of exact measurements at the moment.
Seam allowances 1/4 inch.
