The Stand Up Frame Purse is a cute

little purse that stands up by itself on a

stable base. It is bigger than a coin

purse, so ideal to carry as a small

make-up bag, which would also look

great on your dressing table when you

get home.

This purse uses a sew-in purse frame, which is attached using chain stitch. There is also the option of using a different finish. Watch my playlist for adding sew-in purse frames for inspiration! Find it here.

This pattern is supported by a full tutorial video, available to watch on YouTube.

This is a downloadable PDF pattern sent to your email, not a physical product, and cannot be refunded once purchased.
