I call it the Granny because my grandma used to carry purses with nearly this exact shape, although slightly smaller in size. I’ll bet yours did too. My favorite thing about this purse is that its flat, very “un-floppy” sides are the perfect canvas for creative surface design. I love to start with dupione silk, then stitch on some interesting layers of shapes and beads. The results are often surprising, elegant, and fun. For the spirited granny or the “old soul” of today, the classic proportions of this purse will accommodate up any look.
