Now, take the fusible interfacing. You may cut the fusible interfacing in a slightly smaller size than that of the fabric or the lining.
Spread the fabric on a table and place the interfacing on the wrong side of the fabric. You may then slightly Iron the interfacing onto the wrong side of the fabric.
Now, flip the right side so that it faces the top.
Place the lining on the top and sew about ½ inches seam from both the top and the bottom.
Turn inside out and gently press the fabric to make into the half. Iron the clutch purse when folded into half.
Join the upper ends and fold the seam by turning the purse inside out.
