"Bricks and Mortar" Pillow- Part 2 of 3

Mid-way through felting.


                                                         Fulling the piece.



                                                    The front side (drying)...



                                                           ...and the back.



                                              The finished piece of flat felt (front)...



                                                                ...and back.



                                        A close-up of the felt's design and texture.



                                               Trimming the project to size.



                                Coordinating a piece of leather for the pillow back.



                               Clipping the leather and felt together, prior to sewing.



                                           The felt side, after machine stitching...



                                                      ...and the leather side.



                                                 Next time: the finished pillow.
