WIP Wintu purse side

I made a purse for one friend. My DH pointed out that another friend was even more deserving, so I started a new project. This has 3 Wintu patterns. the top is the Wintu Flying Geese. Then Forest. Then Frog Fingers. The brown will be the bag's bottom.

Really unique, and nice! Glad you explained the names because I was wondering how they came about. I'm sure your friend will be pleased! Please post the finished purse when you get it completed.
