Change of pace-

Elizabeth Harlow asked me to make a small make-up bag as part of her package for the silent auction benefiting Girls Inc at tomorrow's fund-raising event.
Elizabeth designed a gorgeous handbag for the auction's theme, Power of the Purse, and it will be auctioned,  along with other one-of-a-kind designer handbags.

The organization's motto, "Strong, Smart, Bold" is embroidered on the accompanying make-up bag.

The bag is lined and trimmed with a vintage linen print.

The handbag's strap was repeated on the make-up bag as a trim.

I haven't made something like this in, well, decades, so I really enjoyed having fun with this project.
