For the closure I stacked two buttons together and added a few across the front pocket and beads to the side ties. I also put a magnetic snap on the inside (I'm so glad I did) which was a nice addition.
I have to say - I'm hooked . . .

Great looking purse.
I have made six now and working on a larger one to be used as a diaper bag and then as a carry all bag.
Each one I make I add something to it to make it a little different.
And they are fun to make.
Blessings to you,
Sandi

I purchased it at my LQS and it's by Quilts illustrated. Designed by Penny Sturges. #ps008 Bow Tucks tote. There's two patterns and this is the larger one. Several stores carry the pattern online as well.
