Red Christmas Purse ... Quilted Christmas Bag -- Great Teacher Holiday Gift! Who has enough purses? Haha -- no one!! One of a Kind Holiday Accessory... and washable! I started with a new, pre-washed quilted place mat, created the lining from beautiful cotton fabric of Holly and berries, added an outside pocket that measures 7" X 4.5" and a divided inside pocket in solid red cotton that measures 8" X 5". The outside pocket and the straps are made from a heavy cotton in deep green with Holiday items in beige by Waverly. Decorative stitching adds a little extra to the pocket and the straps. Approximately 12.5" (31.75 cm) wide and 8.5" (21.5 cm) tall, handles are each 27" X 1" (68.5 X 2.5 cm). There is a large snap closure, as you can see in the picture. All of my products are pre-washed in my homemade laundry soap, and are created by me in a smoke-free environment. Great gift idea :)
