Watermelon Purses

Watermelon! Who doesn't love watermelon? The juicy, sweet, yummy goodness. Nothing is better than eating one, but this comes pretty close.
Pattern by pomquat.etsy.com.

Don't you just want to bite one?

Watermelon totes for summer. How fun!

I have one of each ready to go -- the ripe watermelon tote in the top pictures and the more traditional softer pink tote shown on the bottom. OOAK -- each is handcrafted from 100% wool and felted. They are very sturdy and roomy. You could even use it as commuter bag. Another advantage is wool is water-repellent, so those fast-moving summer storms that seem to pop out of nowhere? No problem! The water rolls right off these purses.

So, what's your favorite?

Happy crafting!

    Very good.
    I dont want to criticize, but maybe you could do more fruit bags. For instance, a strawberry or an orange or lemon etc.
