Susan says this about the Pumpkin Bag: I originally designed it as a treat bag for my daughters for Halloween - that's why there is a wide strap to go across the body and a small opening so the candy doesn't spill out. Plus the bag holds more than you would think due to the shape. But my customers liked it so much, they began making it for a purse (with a bit wider opening at the top, and the leaf can be used as a flap to close it).
