***Felted Cat, Penguin, Top Hat, Cuffs & Scarf***



Cat - wet felted using resist
    
2014 was a busy year, so I haven't posted in quite a while, but I've still been having fun felting. I made this cat using a resist and the wet felting method. Adding some bent wires for whiskers gives him some character.

I had fun needle felting this cute little penguin to give my son & new daughter-in-law for a "First Christmas" decoration.

I made this felted top hat for my brother for Christmas. I think he likes it...

I made these cuffs for my sister-in-law for Christmas. It was my first attempt at nuno felting with 100% silk. It was so fun working with silk and layering the wet-felted wool to create these one-of-a-kind cuffs.

This is a small nuno felted scarf made with silk. It is very light and comfortable to wear, as well as nice and warm.

I'm looking forward to more felting and blogging in 2015!
