The Needlepoint Bag

It's finally finished.  An heirloom to pass down to someone special.  It took a lot of time, money and effort to complete but it is certainly a one of a kind.





I finished the background in a dark tan so it won't get dirty.  The handle and trim are in a brown leather.  The interior is a pink taffeta.  Love, love, love it.  It's not a big bag, perfect for my size.  If you want to consider ordering one for yourself to stitch you can do so here. I customized it a bit, changing some of the colors and I used wool thread.  My stripes are in a blue.  It looks somewhat purple here but it's a deep blue.  This will go with everything.  Have I inspired you to stitch? I hope so.
