Sewing a Pink Patchwork Purse

A little patchwork purse in pink, sewn using small strips and squares of fabric. After stitching in the zipper & assembling the bag, white buttons with pink stripes were added for a cute handmade touch.

It's not hard to make a bag like this. There are so many cute and useful small things that can be sewn in patchwork. And the benefit of small is the project doesn't take too much time.
