Doing all the knitting first. Then will seam and line. I’m not doing actual buttons per my moms request after the first purse. I’ll be doing decorative buttons with snaps underneath. Because of this I didn’t do the buttonholes on the flap. That’s the only mod I’m doing. :)

I’m not sure how I knit, lol! All my totals are different even though they should be basically the same (they are close at least, but still funny).

Finally seamed and ends sewn in! Haha! I’m hoping to have these done for mom when we go up for Christmas.
