I made two of these little envelope bags. They are just big enough for a credit card, a note, a few dollars. The yellow felt was left over from a backpack that was made last Christmas. We had the backpack photo but no pattern. But we worked with a printer, an overhead projector, some brown paper and a whole lot of trial and error to make a pattern. The bag turned out pretty close to the photo. Just a little backpack for a few things when you ride your bike to work. So I used the left over felt to make the two little envelope bags – one for the giver and one for the receiver. And a little bead from Ghana to finish it off.
