Did you ever complete a project and it exceeded your expectations? A project you were so proud of, you kept looking at it again and again, because it was so beautiful? Well, I almost broke my arm patting myself on the back, but I couldn't help it.
I absolutely love this color combination, I love the contrasting fabrics, fur, shiny sequins, sturdy broadcloth cotton...and take a look at the snake charm hanging from the large purse.
Isn't it lovely? And the crowing touch is that the red snakes eyes match the ruby red fur!
And I tried a new thing too--I added the stripe of sequins--
The sequins took a lot of patience, time and stitches to get them secure but it was worth the trouble.
I also took extra time to add padding to all the pouches so they're nice and thick. Doing so adds a little weight too, so they feel substantial when you hold them. Also, they are sturdier.
I love when a project turns out like this!
