Wearing the (felted) shirt my Mom made for me today!

Isn't it amazing?! I'm obsessed...though not sure how to clean it...

Yes! Is this a cotton shirt with a thinly layered and blended wool needle felted design? Beautiful! If so, I have never seen this type of work so delicately done.

I am going to start playing myself and was looking for an example to send a friend to explain why I was at the Wool Market in Estes Park, CO today, buying wool roving, etc.

Sorry, couldn't figure out how to link back to you, but I'll leave it here in case you come back!

: It's actually a thin silk fabric that the wool has been wet-felted to and then dry/needle-felted on top of that! I'm bias, since she's my mother, but I think she's REALLY talented! Hope your friend enjoyed it as well!
