Luckily, I measured the last purse so I know what size to aim for.
Sadly, like most of my work, I made it up as I went. OOPS, how will I make it the same? Fact is, I probably won't.
She loved the brown/tan mottled fabric as the main part of the bag, so I am repeating it. The previous had a paper pieced tulip block on point on the front of it. I may set this on point but I am not sure yet. I love the hand dyed fabrics in this block. hmmm. Compared to the other one, this may be a little "loud." She did mention that she liked the muted colors on the first one.
Just so you can see it, here is the older one.
