I asked at a local furniture store whether they had any fabric samples to give away. The lady emailed me a few days later and she had two garbage bags full of fabric for me! It included some lovely fabrics, like this gray-on-white mandala. I'll post a photo of the front as a comment.

Thank you! I loved the discovery that I already had this purple batik with mandalas that mimic the upholstery fabric.

Thank you! I was thinking of you when I made this, because -- purple AND mandalas! :)

Maybe an upholstery fabric purse will not start to fray so fast...

It's hard to know. The middle of the fabric would be more durable, but it's a coarser weave, so there's the possibility that the ends of the fibers would work their way free of my seams. I try to leave a little more fabric in the seam allowance on these, but I can't leave a lot or the bag just gets too bulky.
