...to act as a resist during felting.
...the merino roving fringe...
...and lengths of ribbon yarn.
You can see how the superfine merino roving...
...easily made its way through the layers of silk.

More close-up details.
The jacket interior...

A leather oval is sewn to the silk side of the felt...
...to act as reinforcement for the button.

LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!
It just amazes me when I see garments felted with no sewing. Simply amzing.
The leather reinforcement for the button is a great idea - I do that on any decent coat and then usually never have to replace a button again!
Great collage, textures and design. You're so wonderful in making coat. Love it.
Andrea- This one was basted together in the pre-felt stage and then felted...so some sewing was involved. :)
Rachel-It's esp. necessary when dealing with such thin, flexible felt.
Terriea-Thank-you!!
Lovely wool blanket for home
Congratulations!
Absolutely gorgeous! Love this jacket! And I know how lovely you look in it too :)
