Reversible Handbag

Today's adventure involved making a reversible handbag.  AS you can see the two sides are completely different.  I admit I much prefer the white and gray side to the colored side, which surprised me.  Although the colored side is also pretty.  I actually have not yet attached the handles because I can;t decide what method to use.  There are several that I like: buttons, knots, stitched...I'll decide once it's dry.  It's pretty thick so it is taking a very long time to dry.  I suppose I could throw it in the dryer, but I'm afraid it might get distorted.  If it's not dry tomorrow when I want to do the handles, I will probably try the dryer.  

Meanwhile, in the morning I am meeting with two friends to talk felt.  One that makes knit hats and then felts them in the washer and one who is amazing at making needle felted animals and other things as well as wet felt.  In fact she is the one who originally introduced me to felting.  So all of this is really her fault.  Ha!
