You Will Need (6 things)

  • Button
  • Sewing Machine
  • Needle And Thread
  • Crochet Lace
  • Jeans Fabric
  • Lining Fabric

Steps (8 steps, 20 minutes)

  1. 1

    Cut out a of jeans fabric and a piece of lining fabric of similar size,
    I used 6 X 5 inches of jeans to make the purse, where the width of the purse would be 5 inches and the height of the purse would be 3 inches (after folding the 6 inches into half).
    Cut a piece of lace, 1.5 or 2 inches longer than the purse's width.

  2. 2

    Place the cut out jeans fabric (facing the right side up) on a flat surface,
    Place the lace on the top of it and then the lining fabric as shown in the picture

  3. 3

    Sew both sides of the width, to attach the jeans, lace and lining fabric together.

  4. 4

    Turn the right side out after you're done sewing both sides.

  5. 5

    Fold the fabric into half (except for the lace, it will be flap of the purse),
    Now, sew both sides twice to complete the purse,

  6. 6

    Sewing the base for a purse is very easy.
    Hold any one corner of the wrong side as shown in the picture and sew a straight line. Do the same for the other corner.
    Now use a thread and needle to lock the sides of the lace.
    You can also use sewing machine to lock the sides.

  7. 7

    Now turn the right side out.

  8. 8

    Attach a button simply by using thread and needle.
    To complete the closure system of the purse take a thick piece of thread and attach it with the lace flap and make sure to create a loop with the thread.
