Mini Flower Bucket Purse

The Mini Flower Bucket Purse pattern by Quilter By Night is a 3 Fat Quarter project that comes with instructions for a bucket purse and a unique wristlet.  The top closes with a drawstring that creates a flower petals effect and basic sewing, quilting, and rotary cutting skills are helpful.  Finished size is 8" H (not including handle) x 5" W x 5" D for the purse and 3 1/2" H x 5 1/2" W for the wristlet.  Some full size pattern pieces are included, such as the purse bottom.
