Another Felted Project

I had so much fun with the felted chickadee kit, I was looking for other things to make. While at the show on the weekend, I picked up a bag of multi-coloured roving and so I decided to try my hand at flat felting.

Do you remember this purse? I knit it January 10, 2008 using one skein of Cascade 220 and then washed it in my machine to felt it - it's just little, only 10 inches across the top and 7 inches deep. I posted it here.

I used that purse to embellish it with flowers and a butterfly using the wool roving and the felting needle:

Pretty springy isn't it?

Hmm, now I'm looking around to see what else I can do.

Congratulations on today's blog!!!
You displayed that purse most creatively by hanging it on a cedar branch. Perfect colouring altogether and indeed very Springy.

Oh cute. I love that. The butterfly is excellent. Needle felting is a great craft. I dig it!
