Obviously, I cannot post that purse or even talk about it, but I thought I would post a picture of the first CQ purse I ever made about six years ago. It's a basic black and gold drawstring bag, and the sum of the embellishment consists of seam embroidery only.

The picture below shows the purse opened so you can see more of the (very plain) embroidery. Naturally, I've developed a bit since then and my stitching is more complex. But sometimes a walk down Memory Lane helps us realize that we've made progress!

This is pretty. I really like the black and gold together.
ReplyDeleteLove this. Good illustration of what you can do with CQ besides quilts.
ReplyDeleteMissed you on Thursday.
