Been busy making bags....
Here are my most recent creations. The first bag is done in Fair Isle.
(Edited to add that the motif is from the book "1000 Great Knitting Motifs" by Luise Roberts).
Gotta love Fair Isle, you can only imagine how the colorwork will look after it's felted. I'm really loving this design for a bag. I'm working on another, but Fair Isle is slow going.
This is a VERY small handbag, only big enough for a medium sized wallet, cellphone, keys, and a few other small items. It's a fun bag though.
Here's another, which now belongs to my best friend:
Last, but not least, a green bag with embroidery. I love this one!

WOW! Another gallery of amazing bags!! Each one as gorgeous as the next!! I still can't quite master the fair isle thing.... but you keep inpiring me to give it another go!!
Hope your curled up knitting enjoying the snow!
I am just so jealous! Your bags are absolutely amazing. Please let me know if ever there is a pattern for them. I think last time you said you just made them up with motiffs but you could sell these!
oh your embroidery is really nice too, love the dimentionallity of it. i did some embellishments on a bag like that but just with needle felting.
Your bags are certainly wonderful in themselves. But then you add the extra pizazz with the embellishments! Way to go - these are beautiful!! It inspires me to felt again - I haven't done it for a while. After Christmas . . . .
Wow, you have been busy! Love the purses, and the first one (the fair isle) looks so pretty felted up!
Thanks all!!
