Steampunk Cowboy

We had our first frost on Thursday. I woke up to ice fog and frozen flowers.


Here's a bag on the Steampunk Cowboy theme. It's sailcloth with embroidery: a longhorn skull with gears on one side;


And a steampunk horse on the other.


It can be worn on one shoulder, or across the shoulder.


It's lined with a cotton print of longhorn skulls.


It has no fasteners or buttons, so it would make a great bag for carrying yarn or things you otherwise do not want to tangle. It's 100% cotton, except for the embroidery threads.

I'll be posting more embroidered stuff as I get photos done. Coming next: steampunk butterfly, Keats tattoos, blue swallows, and Napoleonic bees.

Your bags are great, the linings look nice too! Hope the E machine is holding up for you Roberta. Sorry to hear about the frost, we had a foggy night here as the cold air moved in after a warm day. Today was about as cool as it's been so far. Always enjoy your photos thanks! ~ M

We had a couple of flurries here in Haliburton this morning - such an exciting time of year. Your embroidered bags are beautiful, and your ingenious designs are so unique and different from what you usually see. I can't wait until they're officially for sale.
