Wet felted wool and other fibers as wall hangings or framed two dimensional art. I lay out un-felted fibers in over lapping layers both vertically and horizontally and sometimes diagonally. I sometimes add silk fabric or loose silk fibers as well as yarns and other loose fibers such as tencel or bamboo. Then I cover all with mesh, then using water and agitation, I felt it all together. Sometimes I add stitching and/or beading.
