Coin purse made with Hubert print Liberty Tana Lawn, a golden cotton lining, and a hand stitched bronze colour metal frame

Description

This coin purse is the perfect size to pop into your pocket with a little cash, a key and maybe a lip balm, when you want to travel light – you could also just squeeze a credit card in there. It’s also a great way to wrap up a money gift for a birthday or holiday gift, or to give as a bridesmaid gift.

I’ve made the purse with a gorgeous Liberty Tana Lawn print called ‘Hubert’, a bold springtime print from the Alice in Wonderland themed Spring Summer 2015 collection – with so many golden daffodils, even William Wordsworth would be impressed. The purse outer is interfaced for strength and I’ve added some soft fleece to give a puffy effect that feels nice in your hand. The inside of the purse is lined with a golden medium weight cotton fabric – hard wearing enough to stand up to those coins jiggling about but still beautifully soft.

The engraved metal frame of the purse is a bronze colour and I’ve hand stitched it into place using a perle cotton to match the lining fabric.

The purse measures 8cm (3.25 inches) across at the mid part of the frame and 12cm (4.75 inches) at the widest point, at the bottom, where I’ve boxed off the corners to give a little depth to the purse of 3cm (1.25 inch). It stands 9cm (3.5 inches) tall.

Please note that the photographs of the purse here are of one sample purse and your purse may look slightly different, according to how the fabric is cut.

You can add a wristlet strap to this purse if you wish to – please see this separate listing for full details: https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/272705402/wristlet-strap-for-coin-purse-can-be?ref=shop_home_active_4
