Red silk handbag with fiber bloom

Red silk outer. Double straps. Handstitching at bag opening. Bag stands on it's own due to firm interfacing.
Striped silk lining. Magnetic snap closure. Four interior pockets for pens, cell phone, etc.
Free form quilted fiber bloom.
This was my first experiment with doing this and I like the look. I'll have to try this again. I think the plain red bag needed some sort of embelishment. This was supposed to be my new purse but it's just a tad too small. I'll have to decide if I'm going to sell it or save it.
