1840's Beaded Purse

I finished the beaded bag from [personal profile] koshka_the_cat’s charts from an 1840’s pattern over the weekend. My bag may have come out a little smaller than hers because I used size E beading cord instead of the size F that she used. Or maybe they're about the same size - her pictures have it lined and looking full while mine is empty and looks it. Either way it is purse-sized in the 19th century meaning of the word, and I decided not to line it. The original pattern does say that it can be used for a short purse so it’s quite reasonable. It only took two weeks to make so it was a fun and quick project.
