Thank you all for your kind words. Since the original post contained links to photos of bags (made/decorated by me) and first some of you commented on them, then the links got removed by admins, I will post the pictures of bags again here (not in the Picture forum where they would normally go).
The chrysantemum bag was made by me from scratch and in the other one I made the pocket and sewed it on an uninteresting print. I have already sold both of them at a charity sale for an organization that takes care of stray animals. I sold them for pennies, because they are beginner's works, but you know - every penny counts, and I am so happy that someone actually wanted to have them!
