Mademoiselle Riego’s Work Bag
A striped work bag in the shape of a jug, using five shades of greens and four shades of purples in tapestry wool, 9.5 inches high and 3.5 at the widest part. Recreated from a pattern by Mademoiselle Riego in 1848. She suggests that the handle of the bag / jug goes over the wrist.
