highly recommended

Stylish Bags and purses

This is an excellent book. The instructions are impressive and include detailed material lists, patterns, tips, hardware types, many ideas for zippers, purse sizes, and alterations. It has a gallery of purses made by the authors friends and is beautifully illustrated also. The intructions for these purses, are by far, the best I have encountered. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn to make a purse or even the experience purse maker. The purses are inspiring.

The Perfect Bag by Linda Mcgehee

The instructions and patterns for the perfect bag are excellent.
However I was disappointed not to find any instructions as to how to make the fabric flowers shown on the bag on the front cover.
I felt that this was misleading to the customer when buying online

Great book!

This book has a great selection of bags with great tips on making them. I love the book; well worth the money

a bit disappointed

I ordered this book because of it's great reviews and that it has actual patterns. I was a bit disappointed..the substance just wasn't there...it's just the same bag over and over again with different fabrics. I ordered "Making Vintage Bags" along with this book and didn't expect to keep "Vintage" but the book was so clear and concise with it's instructions and different styles that I kept "Vintage" and sent The Perfect Bag back.
