The bag back with hand-spun yarn.
Adding more variegated roving...
...in a circular pattern.
Making the inside of the bag flap.
Pax = Peace.
Close-up of the pencil roving.
I'm participating in the Peace Felt swap this year...
...and now that I've finally mailed my gift off, I can show it to all of you!!
I decided to make one of my 'peanut-shaped resist' bags...
...and pack in as many peaceful images as I could! :)
I worked (as I often do) from the inside-out...
...and used sherbet-colored variegated roving that reminded me of the '70's!
I made two Peace signs with my hand-spun yarn...
...and wrote the word 'Pax' on the inner bag flap.
Next time: more progress photos...
...and one last 'Peace' detail! :)

Riet--You are SO right!! Wait until you see the next two posts!
It's a bag that really turns back time!! XXO-
Neat-O!! (and how 70's is that?)
Really nice, and I love the colors, of course. You always use such brilliant and lovely colors. Can't wait to see the finished bag. It's a winner, no doubt about that. :)
Thanks, Sandie!! Yes...that roving was so reminiscent of the tie dye tees of that time, I couldn't resist!! XXO-
So completely COOL!
Such a variety of colours in that roving!
