My sister's birthday is long gone, but I've finally finished her gift. She wanted a new
Veronica for summer. (Thanks for your patience Susannah. This bag is shipping out today.)
She requested a print that had all of the colors she wears - pink, red, green, teal, white, yellow. Easy right? Not so. I wanted to find the perfect fabric so I looked through my collection, visited several stores and came up empty-handed. Finally though, a lucky trip to Goodwill a few weeks back yielded this crazy paisley shirt.
Top quality and beautifully made, this shirt was also too wild to wear. I think it works perfectly paired with lime green microsuede and glossy white trim. I can just see my sis tooling around Boston on her bike with this bag.
Since Susannah has an extra-special auntie relationship with Otis, I took this picture of her new bag with the pug.

Aww, thanks for the thoughtful post and the awesome bag! I'm sure I'll love it! So cool that the paisley is from a shirt. Love you!
I hope Otis didn't drool on the bag. It is so interesting to see all that went into creating it--great job. SDB
