The Art of Dressmaking

 The first book/purse. 
 Worn edges on this book published in 1027 by the Butterick Publishing Company.  Therefore a double fold of fabric was glued around the edges. 
 The button in the lower right hand corner is covering a hole. 
 The buttons added on the bottom are like feet. 
 When trying to decide on a type of closure,  I held the purse together.  The distance was about the size of a zipper with the tape exposed .   So a zipper became the closure.
