Coin purse made with Alice in Wonderland print Liberty Lawn outer, navy cotton interior, & hand stitched silver colour metal frame

Description

These little coin purses are 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. They’re also a great way to wrap up a money gift for a birthday or holiday gift.

I make the purses with three different colourways of a gorgeous Liberty Tana Lawn called ‘Gallymoggers Reynard’ – an illustrative representation of the wonderful characters featured in the Alice in Wonderland novels. The composition is a modern interpretation of the Charles Voysey ‘Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland’ print.

The colours (from left to right in the first photo) are grey, pink and blue and they’re all lined with a medium weight navy coloured cotton – hard wearing enough to stand up to those coins jiggling about. The lawn outer of the purse has also been interlined with some soft fleece to give a puffy effect that feels nice in your hand.

The engraved metal frame of the purse is a silver colour and I’ve hand stitched it into place using a toning perle cotton.

The purse measures 8cm (3.25 inches) across at the top of the frame and 10cm (4 inches) across at the bottom, where I’ve boxed off the corners to give a little depth to the bottom of the purse of 3.5cm (1.5 inches). It stands a little over 9cm (3.5 inches) tall, which is just right to carry a credit card or two.

Please note that the purse you receive will look different to those in the photograph, according to how the fabric cuts – but if you have a favourite Alice character, let me know when ordering and I’ll do my best to feature them on one side of your purse.

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
