Butterfly Treasure Bag
Artist: Kathy Wiesner-Fraga (Buzzards Bay, MA)
Honorable Mention, Alternative Materials
"Looking through the Rings & Things catalog, I fell in love with all the butterfly charms. Plus, your oval drop loop finding is my favorite because it is so versatile. In this case, I had many mismatched or trial fire pieces of dichroic glass that I made in my kiln. Using E-300 adhesive I attached a drop loop finding to each glass piece and sewed them on the bag with DandyLine™ ... The purpose of the handknit bag (also by me) was as a showcase for these glass findings and sterling butterflies. I "painted" the large butterfly with toho treasure beads, making a dazzling one-of-a-kind bag for myself!" — Kathy Wiesner-Fraga
