It took several weeks...
...but slowly...
...over time...
...I covered the whole of the pre-felt...
...with hand-stitching...
...in various colors of wool yarn.
The process was actually quite meditative...
...and I think that the back side of the project...
...looks nearly as pretty...
...when stitched like this...
...as the decorative fabric front! :)
Next time: I enclose a resist!

Love the stitching and the patches.. I always love to see the back side of stitching:) xx
Yes, you're going to be hard put to decide which is really the front!
Deborah--Thanks! It was fun to do.
Rachel--Hahaha...I thought the same thing, myself, but then decided that it would be a shame to ignore all of the lovely pieces of silk. Nest time, maybe I'll make a reversible project?!? :)
