Flat Felt and Leather Purse- Part 7 of 8


Adding printed rayon fabric and pre-felt "o's"...

   ...to a layer of wool roving...


                             ...then folding in the edges, making a slightly narrower flap.



                                                            The finished felt.

                                           (Looks like a bowl of olives, doesn't it?!?) :)



                                            A close-up of the felted-in pre-felt bits...



                                                         ...and the bag flap.



                                                 The back of the finished purse...



                                                ...and its side and front.



                                  Next time: the bag interior, pocket and leather flap...

                               ...plus photos of all four of the 'flat felt' purses, together!

It turnout amazing! The leopard pattern and the graduating color is wonderful. Also the green leather is a perfect match. This bag is good for all season, not feel too hot in summer.
