Steps 10-11
10. To make the purse flap, iron on the interfacing to the taffeta following the manufacturer’s directions.

11. Fold the taffeta in half with the right sides together. To create a triangle flap for the purse:

  • Sew a seam.
  • Clip the excess from the tip of the seam and turn the seam right side out.
  • Fold the flap so that the seam is centered at the point of the triangle and press.
