Ursula & Emily Purse PDF Pattern by The Creative Thimble

The Ursula & Emily Purse PDF Pattern by Laura Martell of The Creative Thimble includes sewing instruction for creating small sized purses with all the pockets you could ask for. Open the magnetic flap on the front to reveal 6 credit card slots and one ID window. Also up front is a zip pocket large enough to hold paper money. On the back there is a slash pocket the full width of the purse to hold coupons and receipts and on the sides are pouch pockets for sunglasses, phone or water bottle.  The lining includes another zip pocket and two patch pockets. The purse closes across the top with a zipper. Ursula has an adjustable handle that can be worn across the body or on the shoulder and Emily (Ursula’s alter ego) has dual shorter handles. Finished size: 10" W x 7-1/2" H x 4" D.  Templates are included for the credit card flap and the side pocket.
