'Pierced' Marine Tote- Part 2 of 3

Adding pre-felt and yarn snippets to the tote bottom...


                               ...and topping them with a mash-up of pre-felt cut-outs.



                    After covering the sides and bottom with additional layers of roving...



                                                        ...felting is begun.



                                                      Mid-way through felting...



                                           ...the project is turned right-side out.



                                              Here's the partially felted bottom...



                                                 ...and 'yarn side' of the tote.



                               Next time: the small bit of painter's plastic is removed...

                                                    ...and the tote is completed.

It does call to mind pictures of the sea life near reefs!

Rachel--In Part 3, you'll see that some of the stitching 'turns into' a school of fish! :)
