This one is felted with the Bonfire Batts carded from my bag of Botany Waste..
|
1st layer |
|
2nd layer - black Finn wool |
|
3rd layer. Loving the flashes of colour.. and wondering how much of it will survive felting? |
|
Part way through.. having just removed the resist |
|
And several hours later - it's dark again! Thank goodness for my daylight bulb craft lamp.. |
|
A meandering stitch line this time.. |
|
And I went a bit crazy with the daisies :) |
While I was felting I turned the hat inside out to work on the inside for a while.. but while this was wet you really couldn't tell a difference, the coloured bits were dark and the silk and firestar weren't showing at all. I forgot to turn it the 'right' way..
|
When it was dry I started thinking.. 'wow, all that silk just disappeared'.. until I turned it over and looked inside :) It's like a firework display going off in there lol |
I'm actually quite glad I didn't turn it.. I rather like having the quieter side out and knowing what's going on inside :)
|
Think I'm going to keep this one! |

Stitching are icing on the cake. The recent hats are so lovely!
Very pretty - don't blame you for wanting to keep it!
Thank you ladies :)
I've been resisting the urge to make more for the last couple of weeks.. but I wanna!
