Gloriously dyed Mawata silk hankies...
...are stretched onto the surface of the bubble wrap...
...followed by rings of pre-felt...
...and silk and synthetic fabric circles.
Some of the fabrics are new, like this silk searsucker...
...and some are re-purposed...
...like this patterned silk...
...cut from a thrift store blouse.
The entire layout is topped off by a thin layer of black merino roving.
Next time: a polka dot layer is added...
...and the felting commences!

I just love using these hankies, ladies...especially the hand-dyed ones!
