The first robin's appearance means winter has ended and spring is officially here! This robin's egg blue corduroy purse is very spring-like indeed! It is medium sized and has 4 pleats, 2 on each side, that open out so that it's really roomy inside! I lined the inside with soft white cotton blend and included a zippered interior pocket for whatever a person would need to tuck away out of sight. On the outside, I top stitched the pleats down partially and added vintage plastic buttons from the 60's as decoration. Closure is a simple blue ribbon loop that closes around the basket weave button. I love this purse because the pleating reminds me of a double breasted raincoat.
