A fashionable handbag, apparently.

...if you say so, champ. #readinginthenewyear

Lindy Have you been to the Museum of Bags and Purses in Amsterdam? One time when I visited, they had an ugly bags exhibit and the descriptions focused on aspects that made the same purse beautiful or ugly, depending on the viewer. 3y
shanaqui @Lindy I haven't, but it sounds like something me and my wife should consider next time we're there! Our interest in fashion is sort of a tangent off our interest in sewing (and especially home sewing), so I wonder if they have the older sorts of bags/purses that people made for themselves... 3y
Lindy @shanaqui Oh, you would definitely find it interesting since you have an interest in textiles. The top floor has historical pieces that document the early evolving history of bags. People have been carrying stuff for centuries. 3y
shanaqui @Lindy Ooh, perfect! I'll put it on our list. :D 3y

Gonna #readinthenewyear with this -- or start to, at least! I'm halfway through, and it's not long, so I'll probably finish it soon.

Also, I'm wearing my cute hedgehog jammies, drinking ginger beer, and cwtching with my teddies. So yes, I will start 2021 as I mean to go on. The bunnies might check in later.

Clare-Dragonfly Your jammies are excessively adorable. 3y
shanaqui @Clare-Dragonfly I knoooow. Lisa found them for me for Christmas. They're also super soft and snuggly, sort of gently fuzzy. 3y
