I've been felting today. I've made a nuno felted scarf (wool felted onto silk so that when the wool shrinks, the silk goes with it and puckers up) and also some plain felt from which to make some corsages.

 

Those of you who were at the crafting weekend met Wendy, my "staff" - well, it's her birthday next week so I've made her a scarf as a present using various shades of greens and mustards in merino, felted onto a chiffon green two tone scarf. Here is a photograph of it.

 

 

On the left of the photo, you can see the wool side, and on the right, the silk side. These sort of scarves are fabulous as they are so warm and are water resistant.

 

I have also made up some plain felt, from which I'll be making my corsages (I'll post photos once I've made some!!)

beautiful felting, Omletina!

your 'staff' will be delighted! (and it's not even boxing day! )

 

 

I haven't got round to making my corsage yet - all the confidence I had at the crafting weekend evaporated here on my own and now I'm afraid I'll ruin it

That's lovely. First time I've heard of Nuno felting there again I'd never heard of wet felting either until a few weeks ago.
