Winner $300 First Prize, Artistic Expression category, sponsored by Tulip Company, makers of Etimo cushion grip hooks.
Designed by Kathryn White: This gatetop purse is done with vintage size 40 thread in a lovely brown. This purse features a design that is created by the beads crocheted into the piece. I used size 13 gold sead bead for this . It has golden beaded tassels for accent and a chain handle. The purse is lined with a satin like material. This piece is reminds me the the simple elegance of days gone by. The design really sparkles when the light catches it.
