Sewing pattern: Handy purse organizer with snaps

Are you always having to dig around in your purse to find your keys or phone or wallet? Caroline from Sew Can She shows how you can make a purse organizer so your most important items are always easy to find. An organizer like this also makes it easy to switch purses – just lift the organizer out of one bag and place it in another and you’re ready to go! It’s made from craft felt so it’s easy to make, especially the way she makes the handles!! There are pockets on the front and back, plus KAM snaps at the top to help keep things from falling out. She also suggests using it as a sewing tool caddy for going to classes and retreats.
