Embellished Bag

Good morning.

Well, it is certainly very wet and blustery here this morning. Definitely a day for staying indoors and crafting.

This is the first of my new bag designs made using a base bag of 100% unbleached cotton and then the flowers have been added using my embellishing machine. The leaves and stems are made from green felt. The flowers are recycled chiffon scarves. In the centre of each flower are five flat backed Swarovski (I hope I spelt that correctly!) crystals  applied with hot glue to give a really strong bond.
