Origami Coin Purse – Free PDF Sewing Pattern

Here is the free PDF pattern for the Origami Coin Purse: a small, quick-to-sew fabric accessory with two separate pockets for coins, little treasures or earphones.

The principle is clever: one lined strip of fabric, optionally interfaced, a few folds, two snap fasteners — and the purse takes shape.

✨ A quick, useful little project

This origami purse is perfect for using up fabric scraps and making a practical little gift. The folded shape creates two compartments and gives it an original look, with no zip at all.
