Inside my Berry Stitcher's Purse


This time I stitched the straight design. If you look carefully you'll see that the little flowers face in different directions.  

The bottom fold of the purse features a long stitch over four squares, then a gap of four squares. I picked up this little trick from a Jane Greenoff book on antique samplers. Thank you, I love this little finishing tip. 

I added a little hand stitched label inside and a gold plated loop. I've made some accessories to hang from this. I'll show you them later in the week.
