New Year, New Beginnings...

Life seems to be just beginning...

...in my 50's.

The time is here to explore...

...it will never stop for me, so I must merge with it...

There is no better time...

Being in tune for now...

...is the best I can do.

  1. A masterpiece! Absolutely! What is this? Goatskin? It looks like the softest leather ever! And I see the Guatemalan State Bird! And Bedouin embroidery! And African cotton! And woven linen! The turquoise patch and the red embroidery talk to each other! Perfectly executed! Eijajeijajei - deeeep breath - WHAT A BAG! :-)

  2. That is napa lamb, Yael. It is very soft, and this is the largest bag I could make without compromising strength and structural soundness. The lining, a heavy waxed cotton on damask, makes it even stronger. Still, it's a medium-sized bag like the one Jill is wearing. It falls from the hip, and is the hippest bag I've ever made, I think--not just a play on words :-) Thank you for the comments! XXXOOO

  6. YES. Absolutely gorgeous!!! I love the earthy colours yet with accents of turquoise and beautiful embroidered red. Is that Australian Aboriginal dot painting on the brown fabric?
    The bag looks like living and breathing on the table.

    "Life seems to be just beginning..." - that sounds just wonderful. The way to go :)

  15. I may be the only one just yet who knows how delicious this style of bag feels to wear and how incredible it makes one feel, but soon there will surely be a whole club of us! We'll have conventions and give lectures and conduct group discussions...all about the glory of LaTouchables hipster bags!

    This one's a true beauty, Dawn. You never, ever, ever cease to amaze me. I'm irrevocably in awe!
