Turning the project right-side out...
...and continuing to felt and full it.
Looking at the bag interior...
...you can see how the colored pre-felt fibers...
...migrated through the white roving to the inside.
The finished cocoon after shaping and drying.
A raised 'collar' was fashioned for the head opening.
The thin, even nature of the commercial pre-felts...
...allowed for a lovely color-blending effect where they overlapped.
The unadorned backside.
The finished cocoon...
...shown with the fabric that I used for its bias tape ties.
A close-up of the closure.
A warm and snuggly baby gift!
