The two Ravelry freebies that offered inspiration for my bag design are:

A Petite Felted Bag by Ann Lim

Around About by Amanda Silveira

The project was really a success and I am sure I will be encouraged to try more felting/fulling in the near future. I have yarn waiting for another bag.

Note: I washed the bag again, soaking it in hot water with a bit of Shaklee’s Basic H. The bag is now smaller and stands up without collapsing. It is petite but perfect for small projects. Now about 7 inches high with a round base of 6.5 inches.
