Grandma's purse

Description

Finally I dared to try to make a purse and use an iron clip I bought a year ago. This was surprisingly fast to make and not tricky at all.

Materials

some kind of thick furniture fabric, satin, the clip

i love this!! i wonder if you'll ever make a how-to for this, as i've been wanting to make one too but still can't figure out how to put the fabric into the clips & that it will stay there... but anywho, great job (again!) :)
