So, I finally got the last thing done on this purse...

This has become a small favourite with me, I really like the model and will for sure make more in the future.

The background is dyed with Angelus 'Blue Jean' blue dye and the snakes with a mix of 'english tan' and 'medium brown. I painted all the scrolls with Angelus acrylic leather paint in 'bronze', 'gold' and 'pewter'. I have use some of my last (buhuu) old Tandy medium brown antiquing, I really try to strech this one as much as I can.

This purse is 7,5'x7,5' in closed meassurment, almost 4' deep and have 2 inner pockets with zippers. It's also lined with bright beige suede.

The only thing I'm not happy with is the stiching on the inside of the bottom...I did make a small surprice there (tzzz...rattle, rattle *s*) I need to learn how to make the "back side" stiching even, anyone having some great tips'n'tricks?

Hi Tina,

I'm impressed (again). That purse is definately going to attract some attention. I sure like it when you are busy cuz it's always fun to see what's going on in your head.

Tina,

That is some Awesome work!

The rattlesnake on the bottom may suprise a few unsuspecting lookers, if you give them the chance to pick it up and look at it.
