Little Felt Bag Project

Hello again! I'm excited to share this cute little project from today. I made a little felt bag, I changed some of the design from the inspiration, which came from the same book as my last post, and I love how it turned out!

I used two pieces of 12" x 8" felt, one white and one pink and some dark pink embroidery thread. I used a wide eye needle because the smaller sewing needles don't fit the thread well. To start off, I cut the felt into the correct sizes I used white felt for the main bag, two strips 12" by 1" for the handles and 6" by 5 1/2" for the bag itself. I used the pink felt to make a heart decoration, I just cut out a little paper heart to fit a 2" square piece of felt. 

I started by sewing the heart onto the part of the bag that would be the front using a running stitch. Once the heart was on I sewed on the handles with a big X. Once the handles were attached onto the bag pieces I used a whipstitch to sew the front and back pieces of the bag together.

And that was it! I had such a fun time working on this little bag and I want to make a bunch more! This would be a great little reusable gift bag or I might use it as a small purse. I love it! Leave a comment below and tell me what your favorite felt projects are!

Adios! xo Scarlet
