Hi Lizzy! Thank you for the tutorial. I have made 2 purses today already. The first went well, and the semiconductor went in the bin 😂 The pattern is facing the wrong direction on the front and the right way up on the back. Is there anything you can tell me about my placing and how I can adjust it, so my pattern is the right way up? Thank you ❤

[@oliveruby7321]

Good morning Lizzy from New Zealand. I have been making heaps of the popper version for our symposium goodie bags. I was having a bit of trouble getting the turning close looking neat so have modified and made a seam in lining about 2.5 to 3 inches inches from top of flap which is my turning area and it works a treat but has another seam but it has helped me get a better closure. Won't try magnetic closure just yet as that will make purses too dear for this project and I might have to change measurements for inserting clasp. I added .5 inch to my lining to allow for the extra seam.

[@LizzyCurtis]

Olive Ruby fantastic idea!!! Go you!! 😘

[@oliveruby7321]

@@LizzyCurtis I love these little projects they are just great for our goodie bags. They look a million dollars I have made a few of the one piece bags as well and tried to put a rounded corner on flap but failed as I cut it too soon so put a contrasting colour in where I had to take my mistake out and I have made a two colour one. I made the pouch a bit bigger and the flap smaller.

[@GloriaHasberry]

[@mariarogers3760]

I see where you can order the hole puncher. What about the to tool that attaches the popper?

[@LizzyCurtis]

Maria Rogers that usually comes with the kit you need to put snap fasteners in... it might well be sold separately but you’ll need the kit to start off with, no good without. Just search snap fastener kits x

[@onerainbowwoman]

Thank you great tutorial

[@susansutton403]

Love this tutorial. Going to make a few. I make travel curling iron cases and cosmetic cases, so I think making this in matching fabric will be great. What weight stabilizers do you use? Thanks again for the great video.

[@julieedwards8974]

What a gorgeous little purse. I've only just stumbled across sewing and am enjoying having a little go. Can you tell me what interfacing/stabilizer you used please. I've made one but I used fusible fleece which I think is too thick. It was very difficult to turn out the right way despite leaving a large enough gap at the top. Thank you for sharing such lovely projects.

[@LizzyCurtis]

I nearly always use Vlieseline H250

[@joantessell9865]

Really like all of your tutorials. I noticed behind you is a black and white bag with the center Loop. Can you do that pattern sometime?

[@LizzyCurtis]

Joan Tessell hi! It’s already on my website as Odele xx

[@pearlleonardbouchard2753]

Lizzie - have you use the hidden magnetic snaps closure with any of your purses or pouches instead of the regular magnetic closure . And if so which is your preference.

[@LizzyCurtis]

I actually haven’t, I better had soon!!

[@Vildmis]

Thanks for the video! 😊 So if I wanted to customize the measurements, then I could just take think of it as first fold goes from 40 to 20 inch then half again and that's 10 inch and then add the inch I want for the flappy thing, like 5 inches? So in total it would be 45 inch? Or is there and easier way to think of it?

[@LizzyCurtis]

I’d cut some scrap fabric and make a toile to see if it works. That’s how I would do it. Mathematician I’m not!

[@Vildmis]

@@LizzyCurtis haha me either, but unfortunately there alot of that in this hobby, the same with knitting and crocheting 🥴😵😂

[@maryharvey9619]

Hi Lizzie, I love your tutorials.I was wanting to make a tweed purse/wallet and wondered how I make it from 2 different fabrics, one for flap and the other for the main part. Im not very good at visualising where to put the seam (if this makes sense)xx

[@dcwatashi]

Well it makes sense to me. What you will have to do is and you probably have already done it by now make a mock up and then take it apart so that you know where you want to place your seam to add a different fabric for the flap
