Format:Paperback
I am very particular when it comes to purses and totes that I make as gifts or carry myself. I was disappointed to find there were only four of the eighteen patterns that I would consider making. The other bags/purses are either too small or too exotic for my tastes. They are odd shaped or just not a useful item for me.
The book contains templates if they are needed to create the bag/purse. Graphics are included along with the written instructions. There are materials and cutting lists and sections that explain handles, straps, closures and image transfers.
All in all, if you are as particular about your purse/bag as I am, you will do better to grab an individual pattern than to be disappointed with this book.

Great inspiration, lacking in pattern simlicity
11 Jan 2006
Format:Paperback
I like the book, love the ideas and the inspiration. The variety is great with zippers and open tops and metal hex closures. A great way to expand your bag making! The patterns do not come full size or with dimensions to fudge them to the right size. Instead, you are given a pattern shape and instructed to "Enlarge 111%" or "Enlarge 150%." Kind of kills the spur of the moment creativity, unless you have a large copier in your house or pre-copy all the patterns ahead of time.

good basic info and patterns to copy
14 Oct 2005
Format:Paperback
Good basic shapes and the introduction offers clear instructions to insert pockets and how to put together linings. Designs include multiple opening styles, including how to put together a bag with a hex opening (snaps together in a spring loaded fashion) which was my reason for purchase. Patterns are on pages of the book with info on how much to enlarge each sheet on a copy machine to achieve the size of bag illustrated. Most of the bag designs are simple rectangles of different sizes.

Nice Assortment
26 Jan 2008
Format:Paperback
I think this book is well done. It would be improved by adding an inch-square grid to the patterns to make manual enlargement easier, but I've had good luck with my scanner and printer. As for "too too", the point of making your own handbags is to come up with something unique to you and your personality. All of these bags can be customized to express your personality.
