Kits · Purses
These kits are a lot of fun to make and don't take much time at all. You can use them to accessorize a doll, hang on a doorknob, place on a hall or kitchen table with some keys nearby, or simply put on a bed or dressing table in m'lady's bedroom.
Each purse kit comes with 2 patterns, an easy-to- read, full-color chart with symbols, imported silk gauze, 2 needles, DMC floss, complete stitching and assembly instructions and color image of the finished purse. Lengths of coordinating cording are also included to make straps of any length…or you can make a clutch with no strap at all. All purses are worked on 40 count silk gauze.
NOTE: For your convenience, stitch counts are given for these patterns in case you don't wish to stitch on the count of gauze provided in a kit. I then suggest you purchase the chart for a pattern and a piece of your preferred count silk gauze from my
You can use either my colors or your own.
To determine the finished size, divide the width and height stitches by the count of Silk Gauze you wish to use. For example, if the stitch count is shown as 106 wide by 77 high, on 40 count the finished size would be 2.6" by 2" (106 divided by 40 and 77 divided by 40). If you wanted to use 48 count Silk Gauze then divide by 48 and so on.
