Bag Lady

I have been hunting for some old photos. Of course I'm finding everything but the ones I'm searching for. Tonight I came across a bundle of photos (pre-digital) of the many bags I made circa 1996-1998. It is so much fun for me to look at these old pictures, and remember each and every one of those bags! Of course, they are all made from old sweaters that I recycle and turn into thick wool felt. And most of them are adorned with antique buttons. Here are some of them ... I'll scan the rest another day. I hope you enjoy my walk down Memory Lane. (I do still make bags, but I'm not nearly as prolific now as I was then.)
