Thanks Weezie and Triss!

Yes, Weezie - it's the bowl that's the latest - I felted it in the wash on Sunday, and it's still drying on the glass bowl - almost done!

Thanks Dianna and Jessica!

Here is the best picture I could get of the finished bowl - I took it out on the front porch this morning - I don't know why I'm having such difficulty photographing it!

Okay, don't yell at me,
but what is the bowl for? Duh
And does it always retain that shape?
And how did you get it to stay there,
in that shape, starch? *beside's dryin'
it with the bowl on it*

I do love the color of that though!!!

uhhhhhhh - it was an interesting thing to make?
I enjoy making and felting items?
It's decorative?
It helped keep me from going out of my mind for a few moments???

When wool is felted, and dried on a shape, it usually keeps that shape. The yarn becomes like felt fabric, and is pretty strong. No starch or anything else is used.

It can be used to hold any number of things - use your imagination! wink thumbup

Weezie, felted bowls or vases need a liner if they're to be water tight.
I think gardenias would look gorgeou in that bowl Lynne. Great job.
