"Two-Faced" Cracked Earth Tote- Part 7

The interior of the bag...


                                             ...and the exterior during fulling.



                                            The grid side of the fully felted bag...



                                                       ...and the 'lacy' side.



                                       The project is stuffed with cloth placemats...



                                                             ...for blocking.



                                       A strip of leather is cut from a large sheet...



                                                     ...fashioned into handles...



                                          ...and stitched to the mouth of the bag.



                                 The finished surface texture on one side of the bag...





                                                         ...and on the other.




                                          Next time: (finally) the finished tote. ;)

The lacy side really does look like parched and drought-hardened ground - well done!
