Hey everyone! I've just gotten a vintage late-20s brass purse frame that needs a fancy little bag. Does anyone have a pattern or guidance on simple beaded 20s design. Also, I'm not sure how to go about making such a thing? I've never done one on a frame. Surely there are secrets to unlock, hidden knowledge to reveal.
Among my historical projects, I'm not doing too much. Did manage to finish a 1930 inverted box pleat skirt in a coral colored wool crepe. Ah, such delicious vintage fabric. Nowhere to wear it, of course. We did finally get my dad's 1931 car running so someday, when we can go out & play again, I'll be fashionable. Also finishing up 2 Seminole pieced masks, cuz why be boring. Seminole work is very tiny (like 1/4" squares) patchwork done in bold solids, usually framed or bordered in black. It's a high-detail, small scale thing. Might as well show something like that off by putting it on my face. Stay healthy & well, --cin Cynthia Barnes in Silicon Valley [email protected] _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list [email protected] https://indra.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
