I plan to felt my bag of salvaged sweaters this very week(end) without much of a plan for what to do with them. Now I have more than a few good ideas. One question: What does &quot;fulled&quot; mean? <br />KyceKyce at Old Recipe for a New Worldhttp://oldrecipe.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6017067599350267604.post-50367526475802570672010-01-25T15:48:46.661-05:002010-01-25T15:48:46.661-05:00oh my goodness! i love this. i love the colors, the ideas, thank you!<br />nicola<br />http://whichname.blogspot.comnicola@which name?http://www.blogger.com/profile/02044553646998556989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6017067599350267604.post-70584903662677034862010-01-25T09:52:59.304-05:002010-01-25T09:52:59.304-05:00What a great bag! I have a few sweaters waiting in the wings for the right project/inspiration.

I&#39;ve sewn with felted sweaters before but i have yet to try needle felting. Your bag is just beautiful - and love how you used a belt for the handle.larissahttp://stitchesinplay.typepad.com/stitches_in_play/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6017067599350267604.post-32384908419611611452010-01-23T14:16:17.096-05:002010-01-23T14:16:17.096-05:00I dug way back (almost two years too) to find a project where I used a fulled sweater to make some heart add on&#39;s to Valentines for a swap. It&#39;s here: http://www.whatididatschooltoday.com/?p=164<br /><br />The felt toothbrush holder is a great idea, and I don&#39;t think it is silly at all. I could use one myself; we are traveling back to Texas for a bit at the end of this upcoming week. I normally just throw my toothbrush in, uncovered, with all my other toiletries!

And everytime I look for sweaters at the thrift for felting, most are already felted a bit, which is probablly why they landed there in the first place. I love your toothbrush holder and it&#39;s water absorbing capabilities.<br /><br />:)LisaEarth Mamahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00922072857698305087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6017067599350267604.post-35892604717471748322010-01-22T18:31:44.582-05:002010-01-22T18:31:44.582-05:00Love the bag--the belt strap is so clever &amp; cool.
