Here is the purse I purchased:

Here is the purse I made this weekend:

What do you think? Did I come close to the original?

      It looks close. I think yours is a little longer. Or is it just the way you captured it?

      It looks fantastic! Not even kidding - but I couldn’t tell which one was purchased and which one you made.

      Great work.

      I think it is the angle that I tilted the camera. They are pretty much the same size.

      I’ve got that same pattern and I’ve wanted to make it for awhile but haven’t gotten around to it yet. You did a great job and it looks like a great purse to use this fall.
