Members capsterdog Posted July 17, 2011 Author Members Report Posted July 17, 2011 Thank you Thank you, that is exactly what I was looking for. IThat is what I made years ago. I have read also that you can use wallet backs to make something similar. Thanks again. Hi there.

Members WinterBear Posted July 17, 2011 Members Report Posted July 17, 2011 Anytime. Wouldn't a wallet back make a much shallower purse though.Most wallet-backs I've seen are about 1/2 as long as the strip used in the purse pattern in that thread. To be semi-proportional, you might have to cut the wallet back in half along the long edge and make essentially a half-sized purse? Quote I used to be an Eagle, a good ol' Eagle too...

To be semi-proportional, you might have to cut the wallet back in half along the long edge and make essentially a half-sized purse? The wallet bag was featured in Doodle page 7 of series 5 . As you can see from the scan section, it was made of 4 wallet backs, plus a wallet sized base, and 2 soft leather gussets. You should be able to figure out how to build it by looking at the pic. Looks to to involve quite a bit of lacing. Quote (John 8:32) And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. (KJV) And the truth is that religion is nothing more than the lame attempt by largely ignorant people to bring sense and order to a world that was beyond their comprehension. Once you see religion for the delusional and superstitious artifact it is............... you will be free !
