      Coin Purses

      THE COIN PURSES presented in this section are easy to make and sufficiently well designed to be ornamental as well as useful. They are ideal projects for girls, because they appeal to the creative side of their character as well as being presentable as gifts.

      Fig. 82. Coin Purse, Closed and Open

      The combination coin-purse key-container not only serves a dual purpose in its use, but involves a few of the more advanced operations.

      The designs are so planned that a monogram may be placed and tooled on the project to personalize it. The purses also are very attractive when made from some of the nontooling leathers, such as alligator.
