Here are photos of my seven year project. Finally got around to posting photos of the dang thing. It took seven years to complete, because I would go six month without working on it. This is my third needlepoint project, and thinking I may do another bag. They are super fun, but very time consuming.
Bag with Strap
Inside Bag and yes hand stitched the lining.
Now it sits in my closet dying to go out with me.
