felting class

Today I spent the day in a felting class with 8 other people.  It was a lot of fun and I'm feeling quite inspired by it! I really like my scarf - I think it looks like the sea with sea creatures on it.  DH thinks it looks like a dog's breakfast. Humph!

Most of us were beginners so we made scarves with a lot of different embellishments.  One lady who had been before made a hat, and another a table runner.

This is my scarf and a little ball I made.

Another surprise and the silk frill.

    It's gorgeous Penny! The colours are fabulous.

    I've watched felting being done a few times at reenactment events, would love to have a go at it myself sometime.
