Felt bags

Small grey felt bag, thrifted from charity shop, I have added one of my felt bugs to it.

Document bag from Habitat, embellished with shibori felt.

The other side of the document bag, embellished with 2 experimental felt pieces.

Heart Bag

And here is the completed bag - I made the basic shape from felt and then using an old curtain found in a charity shop, made coils of wrapped fabric with different wool yarns. The handle is made out of felt which I hand-felted, one side red and the other white. I then cut circles out of the felt and stitched them back in the other way round to make the contrasting spots. It was quite a labour intensive piece but I was happy with the end result. I lined the bag with the original curtain fabric.
