Ta-daa!
A beautiful summer meadow on a warm heady evening. The stars are twinkling and the grasses are dancing in the breeze but can you spot the cat and the comet?
My brief was for vibrant flowers, sparkly stars, a comet and a cat partially hidden.
As you can see the only place I could find that was light enough and large enough to photograph this 6 foot long wall hanging, was outside on the garden gate.
The whole piece is made from wet felted Merino wool and then embellished with free motion machine embroidery and finished with a little hand embroidery.
Till then
Love Fi x

Wow. Its even better than I thought it was going to be and I knew it woukd be good. The texture it great and the depth youve created in the piece makes it breath taking. With all od the detail too, its the kind of work you could sit and look at for hours. Brilliant work!
It´s an amazing work!! We must love it!!

I've had a play with making a wet felted scene using Moy Mackay's book...it was tiny compared to that. I cannot imagine making something so huge! It is gorgeous!

Stunning Fi, and so large it must have been hard to handle under the arm of the machine for the free motion embroidery. You are just so creative. Take care.
Stunning!

I think that you might be a genius, this work is stunningly beautiful.

Your work is soooo incredibly beautiful and you are such an inspiration!! have you thought about possibly trying to get a dedicated work space. I love the fact that you Occupy the kitchen but if you had a bigger or dedicated space it might be easier for you!!

Absolutely smashing - I LOVE it. Sheer genius!
Amazing and wonderful, I love it/
Your work is marvelous in the truest sense.
Beautiful work!
stunning!!!
I've just started felting myself and this really makes me want to improve!!
Can I ask you a question? The leaes of these flowers: Where they prefelted and then cut out or where they just felted together with the rest?
Thanks a lot for the inspiration!!!
Wow.... that's pretty amazing! I have no idea how to do wet felting... I've only felted little bears..... ... your work is beautiful.....
