  • 1/2 yard of 44” wide light to mid-weight cotton for the Exterior
  • 1/2 yard of 44” wide light to mid-weight cotton for the Lining
  • 1/4 yard of 22” wide single-sided fusible Peltex® by Pellon® or a similar extra heavy stabilizer
  • 1 yard of 20” wide heavyweight sew-in interfacing (we use Pellon® 50)

  • Optional Closure: 1 mid-size decorative button for the front closure
  • 1 small decorative button for the back of the handbag
  • 6” of 1/4” wide ribbon for the closure
NOTE: Using vintage jewelry pins is another quick way to dress up your handbag and make it unique. You can use a pin in place of the button on the front of the bag!
