In my secondary school days, Home Economics is one of the subject. Sewing is one of the topics concerned, involving in garment-making. I cant remember how many times i broke my mum's sewing machine's needle, having entangled bobbins and it costs a bomb in that time to have it repaired.
My sister, Agnes knitted this purse. I m jus helping to do up the finishing. Using the knitted bag as a template, leaving about .5" (1cm) all around as selvedge, cut lining.
After machine sewn the sides, i do not know how to use Brother to sew the top side (sigh!!), ended up using hand-stitched.
Needle : Inox 4 mm circular
Yarn : Butterfly Super 10
Material : 100% Mercerized Cotton
A button
Lining fabric from a little shop around the corner

You did just perfect, Jackie ! You wouldn't want machine sewing to show on the outside of the purse anyway, so I always hand-sew that top part !
It looks beautiful ! Nice job !
Keep doing it. I think the lining looks perfect.
Cute! That reminds me. Mine has been sitting in the WIP basket for a long, long time.
Cute bag! I am also making bag and plan to sew the lining.
Looks like you did a great job. I really need to take a sewing class.
