the mini envelope clutch
This pattern is for a small, rectangular envelope clutch in three views, with a flap and a magnetic snap closure. View B has a contrasting flap and view C has a decorative flower pin. This little clutch has lots of potential for mixing and matching fabrics, and can be made to accessorize both formal and casual outfits.

suggested fabrics
Medium to heavyweight woven fabric for the self (outside fabric), and lightweight woven fabric for the lining (inside fabric). Any weight woven fabric for the contrasting flap on view B.
