Jacket Purse!

20 years ago

I learned how to make this CUTE purse with any old jacket (with a hood).

All you need to do is sew the arms end cuffs together so they form a strap, and then you sew together the end of your jacket, to keep things from falling out! The hood serves as a closure for you purse/messenger bag. Hope you like making them as much as I do!

Read your post yesterday--took me a bit of thinking to get it figured out in my head--that's why pics are worth a thousand words I guess. Finally got it--arms are handles, bottom is closed up for bottom of purse, and the hood is like a flap that folds over to close the whole thing! That's very creative!
