It looks like all my friends & family will be getting a bag for their birthdays this year. I made this one last week for my friend and neighbour. It started life as a very nice woollen Boden skirt which came from a charity shop (bargain at £4!). There was no chance it was going to fit, it was a (UK) size 10, so I didn't mind chucking it in the washing machine to felt it.

It turned out rather pretty, the skirt fabric felted beautifully, and was really nice to work with, lovely and soft. I only felted half the skirt, just in case it didn't work, but the rest will be going in the washer very soon!
