 Twice through a hot wash cold rinse was enough to felt the bag.  It's quite a bit smaller than I imagined but just about bang on the pattern dimensions.  Right now it's being blocked around a box to give it a nice stiff shape and a flat bottom so it will sit up on its own.  I'll leave it that way for a day or two before finishing it off with the straps.
