Another Blackwork Peacock Purse!

I had a bit of time yesterday to work on this in between helping Scott with install hardwood flooring in our living room:



It didn't scan very well and it doesn't quite fit on the scanner but it's enough for you to see at the moment.

I have all the seams covered now and will start on the peacock later today. I used some vintage black velvet ribbon on this one and then added some of that vintage gold trim that I used on the Red Hat Lady purse. I also did some fan stitches along the edges using waste canvas which I lined up with the ribbon.

I do expect to have an update for you tomorrow....
