I love the concept of this purse. Now I am not a novice sewer, I have been sewing for over 50 years. I purchased this pattern many years ago and made quite a few purses for friends and family. Of course, the first time I read the instructions my first thought was "WHAT?!" I found the instructions vs illustrations to be very confusing. Now, I haven't made this purse in a few years but had a request from a neighbor asking if I could make her one. I went out and purchased all the material to make her the purse then sat down to begin sewing it together after I had all my pieces cut out. I forgot so much over the years and found myself getting frustrated all over again when attaching the binding around the inside pockets. Just like I did when I first made this purse it took me so long and so many re-starts to figure out how to bind around the pockets. I had to stop sewing and review video after video to refresh my memory about attaching binding. Unfortunately, all I found was attaching binding to quilts which were added to the edges of the quilts not in the middle, which is what we need to do for the purse. If the creator of this pattern could create a little how-to video on making this purse, I feel this would be a tremendous help to all levels who sew, especially those just learning to sew. Just a thought.
