Online Patterns

I completely forgot about this lovely lady, Catherine, who had visited my shop during the summer, but not the purse she had been wearing! When today, in my mail, I received a hand written note from Catherine. Emails are good, but old fashioned letters are even better!
I was pleasantly surprised with the note and included was the pattern for the purse I had admired. Catherine also sent me 2 websites to check out for more patterns for making purses! I looked them over and decided to share:

www.pursepatterns.com (search: hip huggers)

So very kind of you, Catherine!!
Thank you! Thank you!!
