Fabulous Pine Needle & Sweet grass purse 9" x 7" x 5"
Large, Complex pine needle & sweetgrass purse
This a lined purse with sweetgrass handles and many pine needle design elements. There are no broken stitches, stains, or other problems I can see.
End view of the purse
The pictures were taken at the same time, with the same equipment, and processed with the same software. The apparent color still came out looking different.
The other side of the purse
The design, with the large circular motifs continues all the way around the purse.
The other end of the purse
The designs are nicely sized so both the sides and the ends match.
A tightly woven bottom
The bottom would have made a nice tray all by itself. It is tightly stitched no stains or broken stitches.
The purse cover could have been a tray too
Use the string to lift the top of the purse to open it.
Closeup of the purse top
More nice work looking at the top from the bottom side.
The purse is lined with flannel
It was hard to get the exposure right on the dark inside. The purse is lined with flannel and has one side pocket.
Obviously, this purse would not stand up to constant hard use. However, as a handcrafted show piece it would certainly be noticed. Especially if you carry it to places where crafts type people gather.
