Do you like my "altered" bag?



I was totally inspired when I visited Aintree Craft Show at the weekend. But then I couldn't get hold of the essential item I needed, until after work on Tuesday. I got to Sainsburys and bought a few of those hesian bags for £1 each and I set to work. It took a little while as each sqare has been well faryed around the edges and it took ages!!!..there are 9 squares on each side,with a couple of ribbon bows I tied, and some teeny buttons. I'm really pleased with it now, and think it would make a great present, What do you think?
