Winter_Pat1.jpg - Pat Winter I made this handbag using a salvaged vintage clasp and various formals from the Goodwill. I found lame' and various sheer gowns and cut them up then layered them with salvaged laces and my mother's old chiffon scarf then did random machine stitching to hold it all together. I then cut a purse design from this newly made "fabric" to make this purse. I added a hand transferred fabric image and beading with tiny shells taken from a thrift shop necklace to embellish it with.
