Leerwerker Report post Posted August 19, 2009 Hi everybody! I have a friend who has this old Tandy Kit and needs the instructions to know how it is put together. Can anybady please help us?!? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wildrose Report post Posted August 19, 2009 Looks like a purse. The long pieces are the gussets, they are sewn end to end at the flat parts. The one large piece would be the front of the purse, and the largest piece I can't guess on. The smallest piece looks like it'd be used for the closure.

Lui Report post Posted August 19, 2009 The largest piece is the back with a flap that goes over the next largest piece that is the front of the purse. the two widest straps are the gussets. they get laced around the purse and connected at the bottomn. From the slots cut on the flap Im figguring that the small piece is some kinda closure that goes in thru these slots. The long belts are your carry straps. Since I can not see three holes on the panels like on the belt I guess this is some adjustment for the length of carry. The single hole would be to attach together but if this is the case I would mess around and come up with something a little stronger. Hope this helps Lui Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vroom Report post Posted September 6, 2009 Hi everybody! I have a friend who has this old Tandy Kit and needs the instructions to know how it is put together. Can anybady please help us?!? This looks like the "Pioneer Handbag Kit" #44342 which I happen to be working on at the present time. The top part of the gusset looks a little different than the one I have, but on the surface the rest of it looks pretty similar. I would thing you ought to be able to find plans through Tandy or if really at an impasse I might be able to copy and email you a set from my kit. Good luck!!
