FO : French Market Bag
I made my bag deeper. Overall I really like the bag, but I feel like the handles are too short/shallow b/c they pull in and make the bag wrinkle and bunch when you carry it. Before and after felting

I made this same bag, only on steroids LOL. My handles came out too small, as well.
