This one-of-a-kind purse is made from our sewing pattern, "Perfect Purse" found at http://www.gandbpatterns.com. The body of the purse is a faux suede. The pockets and band are batik. The pocket and band were made using oriental folding techniques called "chopkey," which is Korean for "folding." In addition to two exterior pockets, it has interior pockets, including a zipper pocket.
