There’s something about a handmade gift that just feels a little more meaningful. This leather clutch is perfect for anyone who doesn’t want to carry around a purse or just needs to make a quick trip out with a few essential items. And using our pattern means you don’t have to spend a lot of time figuring out how to craft it!

Overall this is a very simple craft project, though we do recommend using a Cricut Maker or Silhoutte Cameo 4 with our SVG file to cut your leather. If you don’t have one of these machines, you can also use our PDF template, scissors, and a 2mm leather hole punch to cut your leather by hand.
