Blue Tweed Check

 

 

 

 

I couldn't resist buying this small piece of wool tweed even though there was only enough for this clutch bag and a couple of other items.
The colours are just beautiful, the little change purse or card holder is an added extra surprise inside.

It's just been put out for sale in the shop, I wonder who might find it under their Christmas tree.?

Felted wool and silk clutch bag

As well as all the hat making here at Hat Therapy there are always fabrics that I decide to make in to a bag. Very often there is a hat to go with it but not this time. This clutch bag has been made from some very unusual felted wool, I took a close up of the fabric to try and show the details, it fades from light to dark from top to bottom. Inside I have lined it with a lovely embroidered silk and added a small trim on the front in the same fabric. The metal frame is a gun metal grey and is just the right tone to show off the felt.

Clutch that

A little clutch bag, always popular.This one is in a soft grey wool very soft but strong too.The gunmetal frame sets off the colour perfectly.The tricky bit is applying the glue to the frame and then the material.Close your eyes and pray.!!!
