Small purse, with carved and painted feather

[datdraku]

Fun little purse I made, for summer outings and concerts, it's supposed to be attachable on the belt also.

I still have to make the strap detachable, did not have all the right hardware at the time.

2 mm leather for body, 1.4 for brown bits (including strap) and gusset. 3.85 spacing on pricking irons, 0.65 mm Wuta thread.

Had fun with this gusset type, I really like the result.

Feather was cut with the swivel knife by me, and painted by the fiancee.

 

Hope you like it!

Made me smile, the "mi-mi", or sometimes written as "mimi"* ( means nearly the same as "cute" but with none of the disparaging connotations that "cute" sometimes carries )..excellent as always.. :)

*either way it is pronounced meemee

You did a really great job on that.  Love the feather.  It's fun.  Your stitches are very clean.

Glad you like it!

Stitching is something I wanted to improve on this year, I try to make no compromises there.

Very similar to my latest piece, but yours is so much nicer. Great job. Pics to come in a new thread after I sort out my dyeing.
