Stacking four different colors of commercial pre-felt...
...and cutting them into irregular segments.
Laying out two layers of each color into a pattern...
...and wetting them out.
Layers of lavender wool are added from a batt...
...and the project is flipped back to side one...
...in order to check the position of each pre-felt snippet.
The topper is trimmed into an irregular shape...
...following the curves of the colored bits.
Felting and fulling the topper.
The finished project, drying.
A bit of hand embroidery...
...around selected segments, only...
...outlines and demarcates the color sections.
The finished piece.
Next time: more of the colored pre-felt snippets are used...
...to make a 'leaf' table topper!

Thanks, Sandie!
Very bright and cheerful!
Love the way you cut the and made it 'wavy". Another beautiful work.
Rachel--The next topper is a bit more subtle.
