Miniature “denim jacket” purse

I’ve been making some funny little purses; as silly birthday gifts for my crafty friends.  I got the idea for these from a miniature leather jacket coin-purse that we have from goodness-knows-where, I think it was given to Cassie sometime yonks ago.  I used the shortest zips I could find and orange top-stitching thread to replicate the design aesthetic of the purses’ parent garment; a beat-up hole-y old pair of Wranglers jeans from the children’s younger days.
These are quite sturdy; and could be used as a coin-purse, as a repository for receipts, as a keyring, for, er,  feminine hygiene bizzoes, whatever.
I think they are kind of cute, and I’m hoping my friends will like them!

  1. These are hilarious and fantastic! You definitely have some serious patience to work on something this tiny!

  2. I hope you don't mind, but I emailed the picture of your tiny coin purse to my sewing group (with attribution, of course). I thought it was so darling that it should be appreciated by women who sew.
