Perfect Felted Bag
This pattern is for my very favorite purse! I use it every day – it is nice and deep, with an oval bottom that lets the bag sit flat on a table. The top color band is used as a guide for placing the straps, and you can’t go wrong with any color combination! A sweater/lint shaver was used to put a nice smooth finish on each piece after felting.

Instructions include photos for attaching the straps and D-rings.

Approximate measurements:
Before felting: 30” circumference around top edge, 15.5” from starting chain to top edge
After felting: 23.5” circumference around top edge, 9.5” from center of bottom to top edge
