Cross Body Bag Design with Andrea Adamson
Cross Body Bag - Designed by Andrea Adamson
This lovely little tote is designed by Andrea Adamson and has a story behind it. The different colors represent the land and the various rockholes and sandhills. Andrea tells us the story of the seven sisters and their travels through the country as they are pursued by Wati (Man) Nyiru.
Nyiru saw the sisters as they traveled to the west. He fell in love with them, but they were of the wrong skin name to marry him. As the women fled from Wati Nyiru, they created the country and landscape around Andrea's home, trying to trick him and escape from him. The sisters created the rock holes, sandhills, and rocky outcrops as they tried to escape.
