Finished!

This is the blanket I've been working on for what seems weeks,using my lovely rolling machine.I thought it would be a good idea to use it as a sort of sampler,to see how the various fabrics attached to the base felt,using the various settings available.It was finished finally in the rinse and spin cycle of the washing machine,so all in all it feels like rather a lazy way to produce a large item, but I'm not complaining!It  is very warm, but light and has a collection of recycled fabric,natural dyed silk and various pieces picked up on journeys to different places,so really, a story unfolding. Close up below.
My machine was made by Feltcrafts and I can't praise it and them,enough!
