Dirndl Purse

Picture
With Octoberfest all around, this is the most useful accessory for busy hands carrying beer :)


​You will need:

1. Felt
2. A small zipper
3. (optional) plastic sheet
4. (optional) embroidery thread
Picture
Picture
Cut a small felt heart and embroider a pretty something of your choice. If your embroidery skills are as non-existing as mine, you might wish to opt for a contrasting felt piece, iron-on, or nothing at all.
Picture
Hot glue the small hearth on top of a bigger felt heart of a different colour.
Picture
Cut two even bigger felt hearts of a third colour.
Picture
Hot glue the two smaller felt hearts on one of the big ones.
Picture
Cut a plastic heart to reinforce the second big felt heart. Don't attach for the moment.
Picture
 Cut out two small  rectangles, one from felt and one from plastic. Stitch together.
Picture
This is going to be the piece that holds the purse, in case you don't want to put handles. Sew to the second big felt and plastic hearts.
Picture
Picture
Turn and stitch the other side. The hole should be big enough for your apron tie (or belt) to go through.
Picture
Picture
Next, you would need several long felt pieces, matched with plastic reinforcements.
Picture
Cut one of the felt pieces alongside in half and sew the zipper in the middle.
Picture
Picture
Attach long pieces (optionally reinforced with plastic ones) to zipper piece.
Picture
Then sew along the back of the purse (the big felt and plastic hearts).
Picture
Picture
Sew the front of the purse right on top. I didn't use any reinforcements for the front, as you already have three felt layers and some hot glue.
Picture
No fill with essentials, tie your apron through it,  and go have a beer. Happy drink... eeehr... crafting!
