Hello all, here is a picture of my finished bag www.dropbox.com/s/0rv984y9447vdg4/20160929_175433%20%281%29.jpg?dl=0
It is my first real attempt. I felted a matching strip of felt for the handle and encased it in the same material as the lining. The flower pattern was inspiration from a post Lyn at rosiepink posted of a flower garden back in 2011. I embellished the flowers by hand and added a few beads here and there. I loved making it and love using it.

Cuuute, cute, cute, cute! & definitely recognisable as having origins in Rosiepink's flower field tutorial.

Wow! Beautiful bag! Stitching really does add so much interest to the felted piece.

Great job Tracey, the bag is gorgeous. And now that we're in full fall mode here, a pleasant reminder of summer!
