ABSTRACT:
A combination knock-down handbag and mat which is formed of a blank of sheet material of a predetermined length and width which is peculiarly seamed and secured so that in the assembled or folded position, the blank forms a handbag and in the unfolded position the blank defines a mat, e.g. a beach mat. To form the mat, which can be subsequently formed into a handbag, one end of the blank is initially reversely folded onto a portion of the blank and secured thereto to define one or more open end pockets. A handle is secured to the open end of the pocket. To convert the mat into a handbag the remainder or extended portion of the blank is reversely folded in accordian fashion to the size and shape of the reversely folded portion. The opposed end portions of the folded blank thus folded are then folded relative to the central portion thereof. With the blank so folded, the central pocket thus formed is turned inside out to define the handbag in the final folded position of the blank. In the unfolded position, the blank forms a mat.
