Konin Bowler Purse by Country Cow Designs (Printed Paper Book Pattern)

For the exterior fabric, I recommend canvas, cork or vinyl. For the grab handle (pattern piece F), I strongly recommend using cotton or canvas as it is included in the seam and will become very bulky with thicker fabrics. If you choose to make a handle accent (pattern piece E), it will need to be made using cork, leather or vinyl. Whatever fabrics you choose to use, please ensure your sewing machine is capable of sewing through
multiple layers of the fabric before you begin.

For the lining fabric I recommend quilting cotton or light weight (300 denier) waterproof canvas. If using waterproof canvas, omit the woven interfacing. At times, the pattern recommends using fabric pens or heat to press. Before doing this, test on scrap pieces of your fabric to ensure the marks erase and heat doesn’t damage it.
