I made this purse out of an old sweater that I bought from a second hand store. I turned the sweater into felt. I didn't follow any plan, I just cut it up and sewed it together into a purse.

Pattern or design used: My own design

thr3adh3ad- I used a sewing machine to make this bag. For the handle, I cut out stips of felt and folded the edges together and then folding in half. I then hand sewed them on the bag.

luvinthemommyhood + theemtpynest- Thanks, I had fun with this purse.
