I made them in felting camp where I go every summer for the last 11 years.For two years now,I started to teach kids how to felt in the same camp.
Every bag is wet felted,and all the handles are made by me.Each took me at least two days to make and I love every single one of them.

  3. You do nice work. I love the bags with ethnographic style embellishments. Is the face done is a reverse applique style? I can't quite see how you have enhanced the edges of the felt motifs.
