She Needed Her Own Purse

So I made her one out of a pair of knit pants that were too small and I never liked, and I'm not sure why I brought them to Panama. (!)

The knobby "button" here, was actually at the bottom of the pant leg, as decoration. Now it's an outside pocket, as well as the closure for the top flap. I carefully cut the pants up, trying to make the best use of the fabric and seams already there. I hand sewed it up one afternoon, and presented my little girlie, her very own purse.

She carries it around, empty most of the time, but this time there was...

...a fish inside.

Her favorite way to wear it, is what she calls a "ba-pat". (Backpack.)
