Sew Powerful Purse #172 (2024)

For the flap of this purse, I heavily quilted tiny scrap pieces of batik fabrics, with a layer of tulle over the top. I added some yarn scraps too before adding the tulle and quilting the piece. The buttons were added when the flap was done. It's so satisfying to use even tiny bits of fabric pieces to create an artsy looking flap.

The front of the purse has a front pocket. I chose corduroy to make the exterior of the purse.

The back of the purse I added a slip pocket and apparently several pieces of lint too. 😂😄😆

Making this kind of scrappy flap is so much fun! No piecing required, just fabric scraps, a foundation fabric, optional yarn scraps, tulle or not (as long as you heavily quilt it you don't have to use tulle) and a few buttons for embellishing. This a great project for anyone who cannot throw away tiny scraps for fabric 😉.
