body ornamentation

The coil, if properly fulled, makes fabulous beads. We snipped them of in small pieces revealing their layered construction. I found some elastic cord for stringing.

The taperstry needle is sharp enough to penertrate the felt - sometimes with a little wiggling. And the elastic cord is easy to thread. We all sat together on the carpet and made these bracelets from our felted ropes.

soft sculpture

Our felted elements included a coil, a ball and a vessel. Using, scissors, needles, threads and some found objects, we transformed them into sculptures.

Tapestry needles and yarn were used for sewing the elements together. The vessel can be turned inside out to aide in attachement. The coil is being stitched to the inside of the vessel.

Various notions were brought in including feathers, buttons and fine needles and threads.

Participants felted two or three elements that they then were asked to put together in some way. Many created containers. Some created body ornaments. A few created characters.
