Sometimes I just have to share work that is not my own! Jojo, a reader and regular commenter to this blog, created these two purses, she created many more than just these two, actually. Jojo and I met when I taught in San Diego, she is a hoot! She was inspired by this post, to try her hand at Deconstructed Screen Printing.
She made her own cloth, used my Pretty Purse pattern, then added stitch paper elements inspired by Kelli Nina Perkins book, Stitch Alchemy
Jojo has a poker playing pack of pink ladies that she enjoys and these purses were made for them! Say that 10 times fast!
I had to share, and besides! Who could resist these awesome photos?
What fun purses! My parents play cards every weekend and this would be the perfect hostess gift for the ladies. Jojo, you did a fantastic job!
yea JoJo!! I love JoJo and her pretty purses are fabulous!! well done!!!
Thanks!
They are so fun! After taking Melly's class, I felt more confident with working with dyes. I saw her DSP and had to try it. I had already made note cards with Kelli's "stitch paper" so I decided to try it on my "Pretty Purses."
Now my girls will have a Pretty Purse for their poker bankr00000l!

Awesome! Even the background is intriguing.
So pink, so pretty, so original! Nice work as usual. You are such a "workin' girl" when it comes to art Jojo! Thanks for sharing your work with Mel. Kelli
