a girls felt bag

I have been meaning to share this sewing project with you. Kimberley made majority of it. She asked to do some sewing a while back, and after picking up some craft books from Target, aimed at children, she chose this bag from the book.

Made from felt, and a bit of our own ideas, she came up with this. Felt is great to work with, while they are getting their hand around handstitching, no hems are required, and relativley easily to cut. Buttons add a simple, easy and effective extra. This is her finished project, and matched nicely with her sunday outfit for winter.
