Spring Update for Evening Purse

You might find this post at several Linky Parties. Please check them out for some great ideas.

A few weeks ago I went to a Ladies' Luncheon and realized at the last minute I didn't have a purse to take to this event.  So I grabbed one of my evening purses and a beautiful scarf that a teacher gave me from her home country, Spain.  I love the hand crocheted border which also may have some tattering skills added?

This is a triangle shaped scarf.


I tied the handle and stuffed inside and tied the scarf to the handle in each corner.


























I carried it on my shoulder so this side would show.

Yes, I did get some kind compliments.  The best is when someone asks you for the designer's name and you get to say, "ME!"
