Get a pair of old jeans worn by your friend's children. Cut off legs and sew cut bottom under pockets closed. Gather it a little before sewing. Use legs fabric to form a sturdy strap and sew on. Get pretty fabric to make lining and iron on interfacing for stiffness. Measure width of purse and make the liner about 25 inches long by that measured width. Then by folding and stitching until your liner is only 18 inches long, you can make pockets for cell phones, etc.

My goodness! We used to make these back in the 70's--my old hippy days--heheheh! They are wonderful & last forever! You can also add all kinds of decoration to them--we used to embroider, add sparklies, & even painted on them.
