New little purses

I have been making a few little fibre art purses this week, after being encouraged by the sale of one of them in my Etsy shop. If you are not familiar with Etsy, you can visit it at www.kathykinsella.etsy.com. Etsy is somewhere for artisans to sell their handmade items online. I had been about to close down my shop there since I had only sold one item in my nine months online -- and then someone found my shop and emailed me that she was interested in a purse and purchased one that I made especially for her. Since I had to upload that item for her to purchase, I decided I might as well add a few others and I'll see if there is any more action over the next few months (items are listed for four months at a time).

Anyway . . . that's a bit of an explanation that you probably didn't need to hear but the sale has resulted in a lot of fun creativity this week and quite a few new purses that I thought I would also post on my blog. There are a couple more almost finished and I will try to remember to post them when I have them completed and photographed.

If you click on the photos you will see more of the detail that I used on each of the purses.
