'After Klimt' Nuno Felted Jacket- Part 4 of 4

 Detail of pre-felt shapes over hand-dyed silk.


A circle of finished felt (inside) reinforces the button.


French seams were used for a finished look.


                                                     More pre-felt details...and glorious ruching!


                                                           The front panels of the jacket...

                                              
                                 
                                                             ...and more close-ups...

                                    

                                                             ...of silk and pre-felt bits.


                                                          Aren't the colors spectacular?!?                                       
                                                  


Here I am, modeling the jacket at Felter's Rendezvous...

...all set for our felt fashion show!
