A glimpse---

A bit of woven wonder peeking out
A spot of leather
A tiny heart skip
A full blown swoon

Love at first sight

A leather corner

Bottom strap holders

A lined interior

All of which belonged to Miss Bertha Hillger

I caught my breath---

I clutched it to my chest
I ran to pay
I floated out the door 
knowing that this love is forever

    Hi Annie, I just love the name and the image I have in my head of her. If only we knew the history of your lovely find, and the stories it would tell. Have a great weekend. Love, Penny
