Mail Call!

Remember this bag?


I sent it to Belle Armoire in response for a call for artwork for their special publication "Haute Handbags" which will be available on newsstands April 1, 2007. It's not on their website yet, but probably will be after April 1. Yesterday, I got an advance copy in the mail:

Here is the purse, back in the gallery section:

Honestly, I don't even know how I got in the publication - the purses that others have made are fabulous and inspiring! I'll need some time to study the whole issue and absorb all the interesting embellishments and techniques.

Parting Shot: Snow removal! We got 10 to 12 inches of snow, so my husband went outside yesterday and started clearing out.

Yes, I'm still working on the vest - it's interesting how things are turning out. It's interesting how things are working out and changing a bit as I work on it. I'll give you an update tomorrow. Right now, it's time to go out to lunch!

Congratulations on the publication. I loved that bag of yours. I remember the opera-themed you made too - fantastic.

They forecast some snow for Paris today!

Wow, what a lovely purse!! You did a wonderful job with the embellishment, making the publication is a well deserved prize!

No snow around here, just mild weather. Too much wind, perhaps :)
