Felting Tragedy

This is what happens when your cat decides to play with your felted sock monkey!  Cats LOVE felted toys and these sock monkeys are not hard enough to resist the attack for long.

Another flower

This flower was made by laying out the fiber in a circle.  I used a layer of silk Hankie on top and wet felted the fiber working it in all directions. Attach the stem to the back side, make the stamen and needle to attach to the inside.

Spring Flowers

It's spring so I've decided to tackle flowers.  These were created by felting two colors of merino over a small smooth rock.  The rock is wrapped first with several thin "ropes", that fiber becomes the stamen.  They are mainly wet felted but I did use needle felting to correct some problems and to add the leaves - which were then lightly wet felted.
