| On April 10, 2008 I once again participated in the "Power of the Purse" charity event for Girls Inc. in Portland, Oregon. Local celebrities were paired with local purse designers and each team designed a purse that was auctioned off on the night of the event. This year my celebrity was Ann Edlen and we created a lovely evening bag made of silver silk organza that I hand pleated in a rosette pattern and a shoulder strap made of hand-hammered sterling silver wire and over 270 Swarovski crystals linked together to form an eye-catching chain! I was thrilled when the purse sold for $4000.00!!!!!!! Unfortunately a decent photo of the purse is not available to post here but the one to the left shows the purse I designed with Tracy Barry of KGW TV in Portland for the Power of the Purse event in 2006.
