Never to old.....I think it's great....maybe you would be more comfortable without the flowers....wvdek's idea of a sash tied on is great...maybe a silk scarf or something...anyway, I would use it and I'm galloping toward 50 at a great rate.

I think it's a great looking purse. And very unusual.

I have never seen a clothes line purse you did a wonderful job but you are right not something I would be making alot of. My daughter has requested a purse of some sort under the christmas tree-so far all the patterns I have come across I don't care for and to make it harder I have some hard plastic handles I want to use for making her purse.
Great job.

Spectacular! I know the work that went into that beauty. My purse ended up being a 4" wide bowl! :D

I agree, take off the flowers, add a sash tied in a knot, and carry off to your next LQS spree.

Humm, didn't think of that, good idea. Yes it is all done by machine with a zig zag stitch. You have to cut 1/2 wide strips and wind them around the clothesline (very time consuming).

Here's some instructions.
