Ok, so I didn't work on the project that I wrote about in my last post. BUT I did start and finish a new project. What is it you ask? Well, it's a crocheted purse. The purse was crocheted last year. And since I wasn't up to lining it, it just sat patiently on my sewing machine (the place where many projects go to die LOL), only this project lives and I think I did pretty good.
The lining I chose is a tan calico with tiny crimson flowers and tiny green leaves. I've never lined a purse before. An unlined crocheted purse is akin to buying a carton of milk with the bottom open; useless!
For decor, I crocheted a matching flower and attached a vintage mother of pearl button near the handle. And viola! See the photo.
I hope to do other styles of purses in summer/spring colors as well.
