Etsy Giveaway: Handmade Purse Made of Vintage Fabric

I'm giving away a handmade purse, made by me for my former tiny Halifax-based business, "Twice Toted".  It's been listed for sale in my Etsy shop, but it doesn't really belong there, alone in a sea of vintage pottery, glass, etc.

This purse is made of repurposed corduroy (formerly a pair of pants) and cotton (formerly a sheet).

 Click here for more details.
