Ode to Japan purse featuring Noodle from Gorillaz

I needed a new purse. I wanted it to be small but big enough to hold a cash card. On the front Noodle from Gorillaz is eating up lots of noodles from a bowl which reads 'Noodles' and on the back is the Japanese 'Rising Sun' flag.

I needed a new purse. I wanted it to be small but big enough to hold a cash card. On the front Noodle from Gorillaz is eating up lots of noodles from a bowl which reads 'Noodles' and on the back is the Japanese 'Rising Sun' flag.

Instructions

  1. Small 12668

    Cut out a long rectangle of felt at the size you want.

  2. Small 12672

    Fold it up and cut the flap to the length you want, cut the corners into curves if you wish.

  3. Small 12669

    Embroider a pattern onto it.

  4. Small 12671

    Sew on a button and make the button hole. It's easier to know where to put the button hole if you can feel the button underneath and mark where the hole needs to be.

  5. Small 12670

    Sew up the purse's pouch and add any additional detail, like the stitches up the sides of the flap on mine.
