Yarn-Embellished 'Patches' Tote- Part 4

The embellished nuno pre-felt...


                                             ...is wrapped around a foam resist...



                                    ...and the overlapping seam and bottom edge...



                                                    ...are quickly hand-basted.



                                               The project is turned inside-out...



                           ...and the excess nuno pre-felt at the bottom of the tote...



                                                         ...is trimmed away.



                                                            The foam resist...



                                     ...is then re-inserted into the pre-felt envelope.


                            Next time: I add additional silk and wool to the project.

This is going to be a fascinatingly multilayered and multi-structured piece, isn't it!

Rachel--In truth, it ends up a rather straightforward tote at the end...but it IS very textural. :)
