Purse Project

I have a new project that I would like YOUR help with!
While browsing through the accessories section at Academy Sports, I found this nice purse/tote. It looks like it really wants tatted embellishments.


How about adding a tatted edging and/or other motifs?
What I need your input on first is what color thread to use.  Here are the selections:


Valdani size 12 pearl cotton in M40 "Violet Meadows"
Valdani size 8 pearl cotton in P9 "Bronze"


Valdani size 8 pearl cotton in M1000 "Lime Sand"
Valdani size 8 pearl cotton in M78 "Copper Leaf"
I will put a poll up to the right of the blog where you can make your selection.  Feel free to comment or make any suggestions you wish.  I will be documenting this project and asking for input as I go.  Thanks for your help!

Here is another goody I picked-up at Academy:


A pink camo Santa hat!  I purchased 2- 1 for myself and another (possibly) for a December 2012 blog event.

The "creeping crud" still has me under its spell, but Jim & Jocie have been taking excellent care of me.  I should be back on an even keel later this week.  Well, it's time for another round of medicine, so I'd better post this, take the medicine and crash for a bit.  Until tomorrow~
Happy Tatting!
