The Oribello Origami Bag



I sewed all 12 of the Oribello Origami purses in my free time, which didn't amount to much time sewing because it took over a year to do! This is the 2nd batch after 4 trial and error sample purses. I've worn my samples everyday for over a year and a half now and I could fit everything I need inside. At times, I've called my purse the "Bottomless Pit". I've since added a middle divider, an inside pocket button snap and thicker straps. I chose printed fabrics that I truly loved and combined them with complimentary fabrics that showcases the fabric origami squares.
