Coin purse made with colourful bunnies print on fine cotton lawn, a sugar pink lining, and a hand stitched silver colour metal frame

Description

This little 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. 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 cute colourful bunnies print from an original Liberty design, on a very fine cotton lawn base (please note this fabric is not made by Liberty of London). The purse is lined with woven cotton for strength and stability, as well as some soft fleece to give a puffy effect that feels nice in your hand. The inside of the purse is lined with a linen / cotton blend fabric in a sugary pink – hard wearing enough to stand up to those coins jiggling about.

The engraved metal frame of the purse is a silver colour and I’ve hand stitched it into place using a toning perle cotton in a pink shade. If pink is not your thing. I could also make this purse with an orange or navy lining, which are the other colours that appear in the outer print.

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, if you wish to – the last photograph shows a purse of this size with cards, notes and coins inside.

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
