My girls & I have been involved in a Christmas play, one of the skits being a shop-scene in which a customer exhibits an item called variously a bag or a purse which is light-blue but she wants it in light, light-blue.
Unfortunately, even the light-blue purse was shaping up to be imaginary. So I decided to design one myself, based on the ubiquitous Letter sized paper: purse-Letter.val (21.3 KB) seam-allowance is half-inch, it requires two elastics to hold the pockets from gaping, & I haven’t marked the lining fabric, but it turned out well enough that I thought that maybe someone from the A size paper regions would like it as well: purseA4.val (15.0 KB) Of course, since those regions of the world also tend to use meters instead of feet, I made the basic measurements in mm, with 1cm seam allowance.
