I thought that if I missed a "hint" like that, I would be in trouble so I made her one. It was the first purse I've ever made and I am happy with it. I used a decorative stitch in the top half and a batik in the bottom of the purse.

Wanna make another one? for me? She would love that, and she can use it with any outfit she wears.

Love your bag - very cute! Mom will love it.
