Cute Clutch Bag

Easy clutch using a fat square and the back of a cheap notepad

Layered inside-out, the patterned material and a piece of felt material(others could easily be used as the lining). Sewed around 3 sides of the outside then turned the material so the rough sewing was on the inner part. I cut the thin plastic piece off the back of a spiral notepad and fitted it into the gap between the 2 fabrics. Sewed across the 2 fabrics just above the plastic. Shaped and sewed the flap, then sewed along the sides of the plastic parts to create an envelope shape. Attached a button and a ribbon loop and it was done!
