Quilt Top Notes/Techniques

I saw a tutorial for this adorable purse on the Craft Passion blog. I’ve never made a purse before (I did make some breast cancer bags for charity, but they weren’t very fun), but this looked fairly simple. I could only find a 100mm frame, not a 85mm like the pattern called for, so I blew up the pattern by 115% to make it bigger. It fit perfectly and it’s a good size. I used felt for the leaf and glued it and the cord stem on.
