    What a good looking bag and all made from recycled materials.
    It's a win-win, for fashion and the environment.
    We should all follow your lead. :thumbup: :thumbup:

    How creative! Do you suppose anyone sees your purse and thinks, "I had clothing in a material like that!"? So if anyone asks where you found your pretty purse you can tell them "The thrift store," and they'll respond "I never find anything like that there!" Use it proudly!

    Beautiful...nothing better than upcycling....You end up with something no-one else has, without the designer price tag.

    I just love that purse!! Of course I am a purse junkie! I love purses, my girls think I'm crazy. Whenever I go home to Kentucky it's a tradition now that I buy a new purse. It would be wonderful if I could make one instead. Great work!!
