Needle-felt Sweater Purse


I have a wonderful and extremely creative friend Suzanne Morgan (http://www.suzannemorgan.com) in Dallas, Texas, who is a fellow felter and also a very talented dyer in addition to being a great person and fun to be with! She and I share a love of felting, and then we have our different "gifts"; I am a fairly decent designer/patternmaker, while Suzanne is a natural at dyeing silk & fibers. Suzanne recently picked up a few of my patterns to see what kind of spin she could put on them, and made up some special kits for embellishing. Here is a photo of a purse made from my #152 "Needle-felt Sweater Purse" pattern, Suzanne's friend Connie made this using one of Suzanne's gorgeous embellishing kits, all I can say is, Wow! She did a fantastic job, just beautiful, and you can read about Connie's special thoughts on her design on her blog http://sewforthsewon.blogspot.com Very sweet memories of her mom, thank you so much for sharing, Connie and Suzanne!
