The instructions are SO confusing!! It mentions attaching the handle linings at one point but there is no other mention of handle linings anywhere else- is this the craft backing (which btw is not sold at the website mentioned)? Also, there is NO mention of adding seam allowances to the pattern pieces. I hope I save someone else this problem- I did not add any since it was not mentioned (and I was trying to follow the confusing instructions to the letter!) and the handles ended up too thin to sew properly with the button already attached. I was too far along to start over so my expensive fabrics and sloppy clutch is now a play thing for my preschooler. Not sure if I want to attempt a second.

Por favor podria enviarme el patron a mi correo...muchas gracias. Tengo el mismo problema que los comentarios anteriores.

Why aren't any of the pattern pieces labeled? Which half piece goes to which other piece?????

Yes, please email sewnews@sewnews.com if you're not able to open the pattern. We can email you a PDF document of it.

As the previous person wrote, I, too, cannot open the pattern as well as the instructions. It states there is a runtime problem and to contact you. May I email and request it from you, also? Thank you...

We apologize that you're having trouble downloading the pattern! It seems to be working from our computers here at our office, so we're looking into what might be the problem. In the meantime, email sewnews@sewnews.com and we will email you a PDF of the pattern. Thank you!

I couldnt get the free sewing pattern to open. I was, however, able to open the How-To Instructions. Can you help?
