Copycat!

Ok so I have wanted a Lucky Brand leather patch work purse for a little over a year now, but I did not want to spend over $100 dollars for it. I searched around on ebay and even used ones were going for way more than I was willing to spend! This is just one example
I gave up on Lucky Brand and just started searching for patch work purses in general. I finally came across this one

It's a Kohls brand but its close enough!

I got it for $15! Wooo! Real leather too! I didn't like the size and shape very much though. I folded the bag to see if I could spiff it up and decided that I wanted to make it smaller but did not want to cut it up. This is what I ended up with.

I just folded the bottom into the purse and stitched it together with embroidery floss every inch. The bottom portion that I folded into the purse is now functioning as a divider in the purse. So much cuter!
