Default 2 new purses with Irish's patters

Hi Everyone,

Well there are some advantages being laid up at home and not being able to work - I get to do more pyrography Bouncing S

Here are two of my latest creations using Susan Irish patterns. Hey Susan I got the Tatoo book and it's a nice compilation of your art with some new ones I have seen before! Love it.

At any rate, I hope you like these purses.

Lindy

Beautiful work .. as always! I really am envious of the greenman purse. I just might have to steal some time from work to make one for myself

Hi Deborah, thank you and yes she is!

Susan, thank you as well - that's a great little book! The purse with the Greenman is one of Tandy's kits and it's called the "Cassi". I died the top pieces, sides and handle as well as the interior of the purse. I then used Briwax to protect it - just a light finish and then polished. If you do have time to do one, please post it as we would all love to see the finished product!

Thanks again Deborah & Susan.

Lindy
