The Smighty Purse
The Smighty Purse is ‘small but mighty’ its an intermediate/ confident beginner pattern that is perfect to go from day to night. No curved zippers, there is also the option to make it simpler by leaving out one of the slip pockets.
It features a turn or twist lock on the front of the main panel, with plenty of space if you wanted to add embroidery or appliqué and you could of course use a magnetic snap or popper instead if you wanted to.
