Once both purse bodies are complete, sew them to the purse frame as follows:
Once the purse body is sewn in, it should look like this on the inside: Sew the second purse body to the frame in the same manner, with right sides facing out. The wrong sides will be facing together.
With the bottom of the purse facing up, insert hook (on the left side of the purse frame) into the 1st sc of each purse body, making sure to go through the sc stitches of both purse bodies.
Work the reverse sc stitch around the entire bottom edge of the purse, once you reach the other side, fasten off and weave in ends.
You can use the cion purse as is, or you can add a lining to the bag which will make it sturdier. Here are a few tutorials about lining a crochet bag: (there are some great YouTube videos about lining a bag)
