felting stages..
I thought that I would show how one of my pieces of felt develop, from lots of fluffy fibres into a solid piece of felt. This is not so much the process, but how the materials change from being the wool tops to the wet felt to finally the dry finished piece. One of the […]
felt the need!!
what an awful pun, I’m so sorry! But I did, I felt the urge to create, to make a piece, and it actually flowed pretty well. It is now drying in the airing cupboard, so, fingers crossed, in the morning it will look as good in real life as it does in my head!
