Felted Bag Success!

My first attempt at felting was a success (well, my first purposeful attempt, i have done it once before by accident!). Its a bag i made for a friend for Christmas (who hopefully wont read this!) - its from a free Lincraft pattern. Im quite happy with it so hopefully she likes it! Heres some pics -

Im not sure i felted it enough cause you can still see lots of detail in the stitches? But it is quite a bit firmer (its stuffed in the pic by the way) so i think its ok. It turned out lots better than i thought it would - i was quite scared putting it in the washing machine. But anyway, YAY!!!!!
