Purse Donation

I am donating this purse to the 2012 Power of the Pursh Auction.  For more info and to see more purses (worth a look at the awesome donations!) visit http://www.unitedwayduluth.org  Auction starts Thursday, May 3, 2012 and it for a very worthy cause - Books for youth.  It was originally made for a challenge sponsored by Bernina and Lazy Girl Patterns and won second place people's choice.  The quilting was done using decorative stitches.  The flowers are vintage and Hannah silk ribbon with vintage buttons and findings centers.  The embroidered lace leaves are hand dyed. The butterfly is hand beaded.  the edging is hand crocheted and beaded.  The handles are adjustable and hand beaded.  Hope my small contribution helps.
