There was (is?) this store in Melville that sold antiques, giftware and secondhand purses, etc. This little dear was hanging among their selections. As soon as I saw it, I knew I had found the purse I was looking for. The lady at the counter said she thought it had been made in Czechoslovakia. I have no idea whether that is accurate or not but I haven't seen another purse like it.
$12 and 6 years later, it is still my favorite purse. :-)
The sad news is that I have noticed signs of wear around edges and colorful threads keep slipping out... eventually, I know I'm going to have to get a new one. There is a problem though. I haven't seen another purse that fit me and my personality quite so well.
Elisabeth S., you asked for a picture of the quilt. I'm posting this both on my blog and on FB because I know you're a busy lady and might not see it on one or the other. :-) :hugs:
