Kitty Purse
Well, I managed to get one purse done,
Her tail is looped at the back, to hold your keys,
or a teeny tiny friend.
Her arm has a little snap fastening, she has polka dot lining, and she's about the right size to hold those oh-so important credit cards.
She's a bit wonky (aren't we all ), and although fun to make, was very time consuming, so I might turn some of the drawings into softies instead.
Tomorrow is for starting my MOS sock monkey, I don't know if anyone else is the same, but I always seem to leave things til the last possible moment, and then I'm rushing around like a headless chicken.
Speaking of headless chickens, I got a fantastic one in the post this week.
Confused ?, Puzzled ?, Worried ?.
I'll show you tomorrow.
Love the purse. Show us the chicken. Don't keep us in suspenders.

Love the purse. Can I have one?
Headless chooks? I attempted a sock monkey, but alas he is headless too....

All I can say is CUTE, CUTE, CUTE! Amazing detail! That MUST have been time consuming with all those teeny pieces.
