Green with Envy

So I guess emerald green is the new black for 2013.  Time to scour my fabric bins for this new green tone. 

My Favorite !Bling! of all Time (number 4 of 5)

I think this trim bling is so cool! Not only is it pretty, but I took apart an entire vintage dress to get the colorful trim in the middle of the purse and the gold ball trim that is sewn vertically on the bag.

I think I like this so much because it has so much character...and I love the fact that no one will ever have a purse quite like this.

An Incredible Gift!

I had a lovely weekend at a gathering of friends I hadn't seen for a while.

What a pleasant surprise, one of them brought mounds of scarves, many of which were made in India.

I was so excited! I chose a emerald green one, with shiny silver embroidery and sequins; a red, blue, tan, yellow scarf with elephants and a lovely border; and an incredibly vivid aqua scarf among others.

Some of these I will make into incredibly unique bags, I can't wait!
