"Shadow Vest" Felting Retreat Project- Part 2 of 3

Mid-way through felting...


                                          ...I cut arm-hole slits in each side.



                                                           My first 'fitting'.



                                                            A bit of fulling...



                                  ...and felting is still required to achieve a good fit.



                       Cutting into- and felting one of the decorative embellishments...



                                             ...yields this tulip-like structure.




                                                 The finished project, drying.



                                                A trio of my lovely classmates...


                                                 ...and their incredible projects!



                               Aren't these bands of colorful ruching eye-catching?



                                                Next time: my own finished vest.

It seems you all had a great time - and such different interpretations of the technique, as well!

Rachel-Yes...each project was unique. Fiona's classes give wide scope for 'individuation'! :)
