This is the same basic bag as the Peaks and Points but cording is attached and it uses a similar slide closure to the Box and Triangle Bag.  The bag is made from Japanese cotton fabric.

Here is a Circle Bag A and a mini Triangle Bag.  These are the bags that customers fondle in my booths.  The Circle Bag is made of black velveteen with Chezh seed beads.  If you make the strap a little longer it can be worn across the body and  is a great small bag for nightime.  The Triangle bag is made from hand-dyed silk and faceted seed beads. 

This is a Peaks and Points bag made with a paper-pieced chevron.  It is made from Japanese cottons with antique buttons.  The paper-pieced design was a prototype for the Peak and Points bag.  The final bag uses a much easier half-square triangle design. 

This is a variation of the Flat Bag clutch made for my niece, Ursula, to carry on her wedding day.  She asked me to make the bag smaller than the pattern dimensions.  It also has a wooden handle that I painted to coordinate with the bag.  The bag is made from vintage kimono wedding silk fabric from Laura Murray https://lauramurraydesigns.com who was gracious enough to part with the fabric.  I beaded the bag, and attached a vintage mother of pearl button. 

This photo shows the beautiful back of the wedding purse made from vintage kimono wedding silk fabric. 

This is a variation of the Box Bag.  Instead of attaching the cording in the middle of the fabric squares, it is attached at the corners.  It gives the bag a different shape.  The bag is made with shibori hand-dyed cotton fabric.  It employs navy cording and a textured slide made by Square Rose.
