    Free Purse Tutorials for Girls

    Modified: Jun 6, 2025 · Published: Jan 12, 2020 by Brandy · This post may contain affiliate links.

    A collection of free purse tutorials for little girls. Every little girl needs a purse to keep her treasures. These make great scrap fabric projects!
    After the kids went to bed the other night I went through my fabrics and found this pink one that I had used when I was selling baby shoes. There was just enough to make a small purse for our little friend who was turning 8.

    A sweet refresh of a post originally shared in 2010.
    It is such a cute style and QUICK to sew up!! I used fusible interfacing in the straps and on the bag to make it sturdy. She is hoping that it will be big enough to put her new scriptures in.
    My girls love their purses and totes. They always bring one when we go on outings together. My boys make fun of us, but guess what? Who always has an extra tissue, lip gloss or piece of gum. NOT the boys!
    I've gone through my blog and found a few tutorials for purses, as well as some of my favorites from other sewing bloggers.

      I am looking for the pattern of the purse that looks like it has ribbons for the handle. It is the one with a snap and by the words free purse tutorials.
