How to make pocket purse pattern tutorial

This is fantastic! I am going to sew one. I love making pocket books, but over the years I have forgotten how to put in a zipper so avoid patterns with them at all costs. See these precious bags, you make me want to try to do it again. This are adorable and just the perfect size. 

Useful Purse-Making Tools & Materials

There are many fabrics out there which can make for a confusing choice, I would definitely recommend cotton or linen first. Nothing too thin or flimsy, unless you are doing to add interfacing to stiffen it, or batting to bulk it up. Quilt weight cotton is most common. Home decor and upholstery fabrics are often used too as they're quite sturdy and durable. Other fabrics you can use are leather (or faux leather), vinyl, canvas, silk, wool, calico or denim. Purses are hardly ever made with stretch fabric so don't make life difficult for yourself by choosing a stretchy material! - For linings, a thinner material than the outside is used and it is often smooth and slippery such as polyester or nylon. Cotton is also a popular choice, especially if you want the lining to be patterned. Fabrics made specifically for lining will be labelled as such, and if it's polyester then try and go for an anti-static option. - There are various fastenings and closures you can use for purses, with the most common being zippers, button flaps, velcro and magnetic snaps.
