Picture thoughts and purses

Picture thoughts:






A fairy ornament that hangs by my window





A blanket I inherited from my grandmother. That is, I saw it in a plastic bag and a million memories came back to me. I asked my mom if I could have it and she said yes, under the condition that I patch it up. Grandma made it from old clothes of my grampa, and her three children. She passed when I was 13 and was one of the few people who understood me.

Here is a purse that began as a lining experiment. I used red silk ribbon for the trimming.










It's beginnings...







My mother's suggestions and guidance that will help me in my next endeavor.
