Since some of my squares had "openings" between stitches which may have allowed items in my purse to slip through, I crocheted a simple lining in single stitches - I just chained a length to fit inside my purse and then crocheted around both sides of the chain and continued around until it was the size I needed for my purse. I added a pouch for my make-up on one side and a couple flaps for my driver's license and cards on the other to keep them handy and easy to find! I put the liner inside my purse and crocheted around the top edge - crocheting over the handles - which I made by chaining eight, joining in first chain and then single crocheting around until it was the length I wanted. I made two and twisted them together.
This is all there is to it! I love my new purse and am quite sure I'll be making another one of these days using different colors - maybe different square patterns - who knows! Time will tell! :-)
