Finishing
To finish the purse, sew a zipper or attach your bag to a purse clasp.
To attach the zipper, squeeze the top side of the purse so that the two sets of flowers are on the two sides of the purse. Place the zipper inside of your purse. You can use some pins to keep it in the right place.
With your needle and some yarn in your main color, sew the zipper to your purse.
