Just finished filling a wet felted vessel with Easter treats for my grown up kid and their gf!
I felted this one on an egg shaped resist and cut off the top bit to make the lid. The little egg on top is needle felted and then wet felted.

Another colourful rabbit! I wet felted the “shells” of two rabbits at the same time with this lovely short fibre Kap Merino…it’s just taken me a little while to finish the second one. After stuffing, I needle felted the rabbit’s features, clothes, and carrot 🥕
Wet felted springtime! My aunt visited this past weekend, and it was such a delight to do some felting together. I was trying to keep my design loose, more of a pattern than a portrait.
I made a rabbit! It’s my first #felted stuffed animal. The body is wet felted all in one piece, and the details are needle felted.
Vegetables not to scale. They’re made to fit in the pocket 😄

My snail and leaf have found a perch on the edge of this wet felted vessel.
I’ve been practicing making vessels on flat resists with lovely merino-mohair carded batts from Canadian business Fibrecraft: https://fibrecraft.ca/product/merino-mohair-carded-batts-gradated-colour-pack-berry/
I really like the subtle colour gradations within each batt, as well as the selection in each package.
Strawberry hat cat returns! She’s now set into the lid of a painted box. Open it up and find a pocket under the lid for secret treasures.

Work in progress! This magical woodland portal is a combination of wet felting, needle felting, and embroidery. More mushrooms 🍄 on the way!

Textured #wetfelted vessel and lid. While making this one, I was thinking of galaxies, yet as the felting process continued, sea anemones came to mind. The handle on the lid was first wet felted, and then I blanket stitched metallic thread around it. I like the resulting feel and look!
Good day from this humble #needlefelted snail on a bright green #wetfelted leaf…moving along, slow and steady. Eventually, this pair will become a lid for a wet felted vessel.
A #needlefelted frog sits atop a #wetfelted vessel and its lily pad lid. The vessel opening is blanket stitched with green cotton thread. Thoughts of warm summer breezes and quiet pond side reflections.
