I asked the woman who has one. She made hers using 2 metal embroidery frames. She attached them together with a lightweight hinge, which she sewed on. I think she covered the frames first, then sewed on the hinge. Hope this helps.

It has a metal circular opening (with a hinged lid) that the leather pouch hangs from, in case you don't know what I mean by "frame". I'm not sure what the actual name of that type of purse would be. Does anyone know where I can purchase such an item? I have yet to turn up a merchant who sells them. Any help would be appreciated.
