Ah, Dolly decided she wanted a new purse, so I told her I could most definitely accomadate her in that area as I had just finished making several new ones and I was sure one had her name on it! Dolly and Jerry attend the same church that I attend, or I should say I attend their church since they were there a long time before I showed up on Sundays. It does not take long to figure out just what I do in my spare time, cause I am happy to share that news. I am now making purses which I shall offer for sale on eBay, but my friends get first choice and they get a break on the price. And let me tell you, this little Dolly is just that! She is the sweetest little person I think I have ever laid eyes on and her husband, Jerry, is absolutely devoted to her as you shall see in the last picture on this post.
So here is Jerry telling her, "Sure, honey, it that is the one you want, cost is not object. What ever you want is what I want." Or something along that line. You should know that they very recently celebrated an anniversary that took my breathe away. Seems like 65 years or something like that, but look at her! She is not old enough to have been married that long. She is just as fresh and dewy eyed as she can be.

We had discussed whether the handles were long enough since some women do like to hook thier purse on their shoulder. I do, but I expect to look for a shoulder bag. So Jerry, since he is the one who usually carries Dolly's purse decided to model it. So he did and he pronounced that it was just about perfect.
And since the deal is struck, here I am getting a check for my wares. Ah, everyone fared well on this little transaction, although I did rather hate to part with that purse as it was one of my personal favorites. But if it must go to a new home, I am sure it will be happy at Jerry and Dolly's house. Besides, I will probably see it again next Sunday!
