I have several of these cute new clutch style purses now listed in the shop.
These clutches are the perfect size to carry a small wallet, phone, keys and lip gloss. Or put it in the larger bag you carry to work or the gym!
They are all made from felted wool sweaters in bright Spring colors and some have accents of other upcycled wool fabrics. Perfect for the girl on the go!
I had submitted one of my Flower Basket Handbags and a matching zippered pouch and was excited when I found out my work had been selected.
Haute Handbags is a Stampington Publication. Stampington publishes titles such as Sew Somerset, Stuffed, and GreenCraft, and they all feature the work of artists and crafters including photos and step-by-step instructions. The Autumn issue will be available October 1. You can find them at bookstores, craft stores and online. And I'll have the featured handbag set for sale in my shop in October!
This is the EMILY, a new design. It's a cute navy tote made from a felted wool sweater, and embellished with a felted wool flower that coordinates with the lining. Use it as a handbag, a small market tote or to carry your latest craft project.
This is a red WILLOW handbag. This photo shows the rich, warm colors of the pattern from the original wool sweater.
This is the latest Willow style handbag, in cream, tan and brown stripes.

A pretty red patterned Bella style handbag,
a green leaf felted wool zippered pouch,
and some pretty beaded rose brooches. 
Yesterday I finished a new design project
Today I am working on some new zippered pouches for my Etsy shop, Felt Sew Good.
I gathered coordinating colors of wool, decided on silhouette applique shapes for each color, and then chose cotton fabric to line each pouch. They will soon be available in the shop!
After some sketches and a lot of measuring, I made myself a muslin pattern and cut out the first Bella from two green felted wool sweaters.
I used a pretty Spring green wool for the bottom of the bag and a darker moss green wool for the top and strap. This is the end result!
I was satisfied with the end result of my first new handbag and was ready to make another Bella, this one with a stripe pattern.
I've added some favorites, like this blue "Jasper" style handbag.
This pretty raspberry colored wristlet will make the transition to Spring!
And I've just added this new "Elizabeth" style handbag in pretty shades of blue. For more info on these items, click here to see my shop.
And be sure to check in again next week for more new Spring styles to come!
I'm partial to argyle, so I really like this blue argle Sabrina style handbag.
This teal Jasper style bag was made from a finely textured merino wool sweater and I added a retro tropical print lining. 
And this light blue and stripe pattern Emma style handbag was made from a repurposed wool sweater with a little bit of angora. It's very soft to the touch.See more photos and get more info about of all these handbags and more in my shop!
