[woolandflax]

okay here is the before pic

 

This pic is pretty close to the actual color.

 

here is the after shot

 

and here is one of it being blocked

 

here is a pic of the lining fabric, the flower I designed for the front and the handles.

 

I can't wait till it dries and I can finish it!! I love the way it turned out and can't wait to make some more!!! i made it last night and felted it this morning, i love how fast it goes together!!

 

Oh and I used paton's upcountry superbulky wool in steel blue, took about 3.5 balls. It's kinda hairy but I think I like it that way, gives it lots of texture and eye appeal!!

Great job, I love those handles! Where did you get the handles???

 

The fulling is quite addicting--it's gonna be awesome

[RebeccaVelasquez]

[MarvieN]

Yay Rebecca! I love the color! It's a great bag =)

[Nashville Crocheter]

Good Job. Isn't fulling fun!

[Julie]

Very nice Rebecca!! :)h

[woolandflax]

Thanks guys! I just wish it would hurry up and dry!! You'd think with today's temp being in the lower 70's!!!!:eek2 that it would be dry by now. Anyway I have a friend who's really wanting to see it cause she's never heard of felting before!!!! I think I might be able to make some sales. :woohoo Oh the candles were a RAOK gift so I don't know where they were purchased for sure, but I think I've seen very similar ones at Hobby Lobby. They have a good selection on them. I'll post more pics after I have it lined and the handles on. Hopefully by tomorrow night!!:fc

Rebecca! Your bag is awesome! You wrote down the pattern, right, right??? :f-1

[woolandflax]

Okay, the lining is not in yet, and I still have to find the perfect button for the center of my flower but otherwise you can pretty much tell how it turned out. I'm also gonna add a button tab closure but it won't be visible on the outside. I'm just thrilled with it!!

 

 

No, unfortunately Tiff, I didn't write down the pattern but if anyone sends me 4 balls of that same wool, I will write the pattern, full the bag and send it back to them to assemble??

[RebeccaVelasquez]

hmmmm, so what if we send you some wool that is similar???

 

i'd love to have that bag out of some wool that i need to spin up

[woolandflax]

Sure Rebecca, i think it would be even prettier made from handspun wool. And I've been longing......ever so long to play with some of your handspun!!(! is that too subtle or just right? :bad ) hehehe.....
