Step 9 HANDLES, BUTT, TAIL, AND MOUSE HEAD

Now for the embellishments.  Mark center on you lunch bag.  Mark center on your handles.  Place your handles center to center on the bag pinning it into place between the lining and fabric bag.  Secure it tight.  Carefully stitch one side of the handles to the purse as not to break a machine needle, continuing all the way around to the other side, stitching extra over the handle area.  Sew it very well because the handles are a stress point.

Center mouse's butt on the back of the bag.  Center tail on the lower part of her butt sticking it under the butt enough that it will be secure.  Hand sew, glue, or use Velcro. 

NOTE: Velcro might be a good choice if you plan on washing your purse.  If you wash your purse don't use cardboard for the bottom insert, use a hard plastic instead. 

Center mouse's head to the center of the bag front and hand sew or glue it into place.  NOTE: From her cheeks down leave open so you can attach whiskers and cheese.  Now glue or hand sew her whiskers into place. 

Pin cheese and flower where it looks the best and hand sew, Velcro, or glue. 
Glue hair into place and glue bow.
