Welcome back to Summer Fun Fridays. This is a beginner sewing project that is loads of fun. Your kids can make an easy to sew felt purse with this simple tutorial.

This is an inexpensive craft project too because you can get most, if not all, of the supplies at your local dollar store. Make a small one to serve as a coin purse or make it larger to use as a wallet or clutch purse.

Note: if making a larger size, you will want to use a stiffer felt or add some kind of stabilizer to hold its shape.
