Oh Noooo, the feathers are too low...


Feathers just right.


Feathers toooooo low... grrrr. I have to take it apart.


Purse without feathers. The picture seemed low enough. It's really difficult to tell until it's all together. I'm going to have to pin it together somehow, before sewing, so I can look at where the feathers fall.


This is the first feathered bag. Dog is Snickers, a friends pet.

I'm not sure how my client found this purse - I don't remember ever advertising it. We had it on display in St. Charles as a sample. Someone fell in love with it and 'made an offer we couldn't refuse,' so we sold the sample. Anyway, she had an adorable picture of her Pug, Dottie in a pink plaid, pink fur trimmed jacket and sunglasses that she wanted on a similar purse, but with - you guessed it - pink feathers!

It turned out really cute, after I moved the pictures down on both sides. I'm going to have to figure out how to determine where to put the picture first, before I make any more of these purses. People kept coming into my studio to see what I was working on with all the pink feathers!

Oooops!


Got a purse order. It came out great. It was the wrong size... so now there are 2. I must have needed a new sample.

Purse



Isn't this a great family picture? My client gave this purse to her mother as a birthday gift. Her mom is one of the kids in the picture. I was just thinking about how serene the Mom looks in this photo. Imagine getting 14 children ready for a family photo, and the little guy in front looks to be about 1 year to 18 months old. She was amazing!
