Felted bag

I have just finished my first attempt at a felted bag and am quite pleased!

I had previously made the flower so as the colours were the same I decided to use this rather than make another.

The strap actually took ages to make with continual rolling and wetting. 



There are no seams in the bag, it is all made in one piece with a template in the middle then layers of wool around the template.  The only sewing was to attach the loop and felt button.

    WOW, you are clever! You must be so pleased with it. I will get some felting done soon. I need to have a good sort out in my craft room.

    It's gorgeous - looks like something from an expensive boutique. I love the red inside. I made a bag from a felted wool jumper, but it didn't look anything like as sophisticated as yours.
