the magic of wool
size 4X polyester victorian looking blouse
applied carded wool and angelina to both sides of each side using resist.....fulled down to a size 16 front side..had my husband help with sliding the resist in with wool on it
on the back I tried to do it myself and the wool slid down on the top plus I was impatient in rolling the back side which is a bad habit on mine.....but....I have scraps I am now felting and I will do some surface design at the top which will be cosmetic as well as unique to the design which can tend to be ordinary if it was just felted like anyone can do.....Rosiewildwoman Art to Wear
front and back with surface design talked about in next post....

So....today....I could no resist this wedding gown in the Halloween section for $9.99....The pink flower lace netting, puff sleeves, crinoline, satin, trails of white flowers.....what can I do with this and wool???? It will be fun letting it become what it wants to be.....Rosiewildwoman Art to Wear
