An old cardigan with autumn leaves:)

Today was a fruitful day for me, I did too many tasks. When I was organizing my wardrobe, I found this an old cardigan that I've knitted and embellished long time ago. It is at least 20 years old!!! To find totally forgotten cardigan made me happy, I can wear at home...Its mohair yarn with dark chocolate color still looks pretty. The most important part of the cardigan is embellishments that was my first trial to work with leathers...Isn't so obvious that my crazy world world comes from past. I remeber how I've worked hard to sew all those leather autumn leaves and to cover their borders with trims.


Here is a close-up for one motif, isn't is nice with nice color combo? But, I still remember my struggle to sew beads and buggles on the leather to form those autumn leaves...
Its back side also has motifs...
I wish I could have same patience and enthuisiam to create same kind of things again. Time to time to find these kind of my old work force me to realize to work hard once again. I was full time working mother and doing these kind of things:)) I plan to active as much as I can on next year, I promise to share new lovely things with you:))

Progress of the purse


The progress of the purse is a little bit slow... Unfortunately, I don't knit so fast as I was doing long time ago!!!
