Obama bag and other stuff




Where was I? Oh, you're still there. Good. We've had some work done on the computer (thanks, Dennis) and I've finally got round to uploading my pics of the "Obama" bag I made for a friend of a friend who lives in the US and worked on Obama's campaign. The central panel is a discharged themofax screen print of the president's inauguration speech. Many thanks to Ineke Berlyn for the loan of the screen.
I wasn't 100% pleased with the bag and it took me far longer to make than it need have done but it's over the pond with its new owner now and I'm told it has attracted a great deal of interest!

That's a GREAT BAG! I love the way the lettering goes and the combination with the stripes inside. What a good job. It gives me the creeps to think what you could come up with if I asked you to make a bag with our dear Berlusconi in mind ... Oh dear don't you tell me
