Fat Cat Hats and Sacks events and shows:
Once a year there is a charity event here in Portland called "Power of the Purse" to raise
money for Girls Inc Northwest. Local celebrities are paired with local designers and each
team creates a handbag that is auctioned off the night of the event. I've been pleased
to participate several times:

to participate several times:
In 2009 Arielle Schnitzer and I created a color-
ful and fun fuschia faux fur handbag decorated
with silver sequins and metallic glass beads.
In 2008 Ann Edlen and I designed a very fancy
evening bag made with pleated silk organza and
a sterling silver handle with over 270 swarovski
crystals. What a thrill when it sold for $4000.00!
In 2006 Tracy Barry of KGW-TV and I designed
an Asian-inspired purse made with a beautiful
mudsilk fabric and fresh water pearls
