Felting

November & December kits from ScrapGoods uses the technique of felting. We received some templates to make a flower, but I wanted to see what I could do. So I made a blue bird with a red wing.

Here's the blue bird in progress:



And then making the wing:



And then the end product.




I decided I wanted a wispy tail & end of wing. It was fun. I really enjoy this technique, and am so happy I also got several other colors of wool. I'll sew a bead on for an eye and cut out a felt beak. Then I plan to felt a limb for it to sit on!!
