Pasos a seguir

Cut out a 21 cm x 30 cm felt rectangle. The bag can be bigger or smaller but you must keep the proportions.

Bend the felt in three, two equal parts and one shorter, the flap. Hold the three bent parts with pins.

Sew the sides of the bag. Make an eye and sew it in the top of the flap. Sew a button in the other side of the bag. You can replace the eye and the button by an automatic or a hook and eye or Velcro.

Cut out felt flowers. Sew or glue a flower on the eye, to hide it.

Sew or glue the felt flowers as decoration. If you want, you can complete the decoration with butterflies, hearts or other felt figures.
