Step 6Attach the handles
Get your handles out again, and put them with the contrasting color squares. Pin each handle about one and a half inches in from the edge of the square. If you added pockets, this is when you need to be careful about where your handles go.
Please see the pictures as to how the handles will look when you have finished pinning them to the square.
Sew your handle in a color thread that won't show up as much along the two lines you sewed before. Sewing each handle along two lines will make it much stronger.
Also sew the handles in a horizontal line where they meet the top of the purse. This will give them added strength.
Don't worry if the handles seem short, they will stretch a little when you put things in the bag, usually enough to put over your shoulder.
