My first attempt at a felt bag and it's lovely rose is finished and I am so pleased. I thought the flower would be really tricky but it was surprisingly easy.
Life is so busy but I made the rose felt whilst cooking tea for the children and I last night (OK so the pasta might have tasted of olive oil soap rather than olive oil but hey...) and then I stitched it together when they had gone off to bed.
I just need to find somewhere nice to go and show it off now....hmmmm.
You can see the journey of this bag on last weeks Blog.
I can't wait to make another now but I've got a couple of almost finished projects that I must do first before launching into yet another adventure!
Your bag is really lovely, that rose is FABULOUS!!

ReplyDeleteWell done, that looks so difficult, the rose is beautiful.

Both bags are gorgeous, the rose and the patchwork one with the buttons. I am very impressed with your rose, it sounds a bit like alchemy this felting business.
