Members Avion Posted April 18, 2015 Members Report Posted April 18, 2015 My mother showed me this this evening. Her sister (my aunt) made this for her in 1963. Quote
Members DoubleC Posted April 18, 2015 Members Report Posted April 18, 2015 That is beautiful Avion. Cheryl Quote
Members Avion Posted April 18, 2015 Author Members Report Posted April 18, 2015 Mom also showed me these two purses she bought in 1967...she remembers paying $65 per purse, which is probably equivalent to $275- $300 in today's faux money. Quote
Members Avion Posted April 18, 2015 Author Members Report Posted April 18, 2015 She said she carried that hippy bag 10 yrs. as it was her favorite purse. I told her I was going to borrow it to make a pattern. It's just an open raw leather bag inside, but she said that's what she liked about it... Everything was easy to find. Quote
Members LoneWolf1973 Posted April 19, 2015 Members Report Posted April 19, 2015 Looks good...that's what I tell people about Wal-Mart stuff (1 yr usually) compared to 10+ yrs handmade. Quote
