A Plethora of Peculiar Projects- Part 7 of ? (Polka Dot Bag)

Crafting a resist with multiple parts...

 
...and covering each section with brown wool roving...

 
...and white pre-felt circles.



The fully felted purse on display...

...at our 'end of the week sharing party' in Portugal.
 
I made the white pre-felt with flax, tussah silk...

 
...milk protein and bamboo inclusions.

 
Side one of the finished bag...

 
...and side two.

 
This is another of my 'not quite finished' projects...

...that I intend for my end-of-the-month giveaway.

I think it would greatly benefit from a bit of hand-stitching at the mouth of the bag...

...and the insertion of a length of cording or tubing in each handle...

...for structural support.
