Though paisley designs originate in Persia as vegetable motifs with a twisted tear drop shape, I have always associated them with feathers. Perhaps it is their graceful shape, or the often feather like embellishments around the edges. This bag displays both. I have done the feathers in metallic thread to make them stand out. The paisley designs would lend themselves to metallic thread too. I stitched the purse on suede cloth with quite a bit of nap.

Some other color combinations could be fall colors on a chocolate brown background, pastel shades on white faux leather or do them as tone on tone with several shades of the same colors.
This is a more constructed purse than my other bags to date: zippered pocket in lining, interfaced throughout bag and lining, padded straps and various types of pockets in and out. All of my bags are my own design and I am finding I like to design handbags!  I used BFC metallic thread on this purse

The medium bag is 13.6x10.3x5 inches and the large is 16x12x6 inches.
