There is also a large pocket on the back for a pad of paper and receipts. Does anyone else get their purse so filled with receipts that they can’t find their wallet? Yeah, that’s my purse. Hopefully a specific pocket for receipts will solve that problem. I also tend to lose my keys in the very bottom of purses, so I added a little clip under the long strap there. No more lost keys!  The top closes with two strong magnetic snaps. I forgot how easy those were to install, I should use them more often.

I also forgot how to put in a zippered pocket. It turned out pretty great considering that I had to figure it out again on my own. No gaps or puckered fabric and it runs nice and smooth.

As a final fancy bit of engineering, the long strap is removable, so it can be a shoulder or handbag.

Overall, I love this purse. Probably the only thing I would change is the curved bottom. I think I would like it a little more square and flat on the bottom.

Exactly like the blue jean bag, but a little shorter and with blue snaps. The size is just right this time! The straps are a great length, too. They are perfect for holding in your hand and fit nicely over the shoulder as well.

I top stitched with red thread to match the lining. I’ll remember next time to change to a new needle before topstitching next time. It looks ok, but it could be neater.
