Make a Placemat Purse

By Rain Blanken, About.com Guide

Start sewing at the bottom edge of your fold. Sew all the way up to the top, stitching about a 1/8" from the edge. Repeat on the other side of the placemat. Be sure to tie off your thread on the inside of each side to prevent your new seams from unraveling.

When the sides are stitched up, sew on the handles.
