Free pattern: Origami coin purse

Sew4Home has a delightful and free pattern that’s perfect for anyone looking to make a fun and functional accessory: an origami coin purse! This cute little purse starts with a flat piece of fabric and, through a clever folding and snapping technique, transforms into a charming cone-shaped coin purse. The size of the folded coin purse is about 5” in length, forming an equilateral triangle, and it’s just the right size to hold loose change, small cards, or other tiny treasures.

What makes this project even more fun is the way Sew4Home has added decorative ribbons to the purse, giving it a special touch that enhances its beauty. You could personalize the coin purse by experimenting with different fabrics, whether that’s using colorful patchwork from your scrap fabric collection or opting for a single piece of fabric in your favorite print. The beauty of this project is that it’s versatile – you can make it as simple or as intricate as you like!

This coin purse is a perfect beginner-friendly sewing project for anyone who wants to try out a new technique like origami folding with fabric, and it’s a great way to use up fabric scraps you may have left over from other projects. Plus, it’s a wonderful gift idea for friends, family, or anyone who appreciates a cute, handmade accessory.

Whether you’re a seasoned seamstress or just starting out, this coin purse is a satisfying project that can be completed in no time at all. You’ll be amazed at how a simple flat piece of fabric can turn into such a functional and stylish accessory.
