Some of the 'color trials'...
...as my friends choose pieces for their own mandalas.
(Surprisingly...
...often the oddest color combinations work well together!)
My 'partners in crime'...
...hard at work...
...outlining their pre-felt inserts with dark wool yarn...
...for a stained-glass effect!
My own pre-felt mandala (after outlining).
Flipping it to side two...
...wetting it out...
...and covering it with layers of natural black alpaca roving...
...and orange wool.
Flipping it back to side one...
...and felting the project.
The completed mandala.
Trimming the edge to create a tidy border.
Our finished work...
...drying.
The back of the finished piece...
...and the front (with yarn 'wigglies').
A close-up of the surface texture.
I'll be taking a short blog break while I travel...
...so please watch for new posts (and a refreshed attitude!)...
...at the end of June. :)

Love the way the colours sing, and that stained glass effect is really effective!
Thanks, Rachel!
