Hello once again! OK, I finished the bag--hope you can see how nice it is from the picture.  I made the 5x7 size, I used purple mole skin for the bag and lined the inside with a colorful pink/purple striped cotton and as you can see used red and lime green threads for the design and a purple for the outer satin stitches and eyelets and threaded purple satouche cording through it.  I know when my granddaughters see me with it Christmas, they will place their orders with me for theirs....LOL... Connie.
