Fiber Artist Dixie Fencl commented on "A Cottage Garden Vest". Here is all of the information on Sharon Costello – A Cottage Garden Vest – Wearable Felted Landscapes and her web site information. Sharon is one of the teachers at IWC 2009. Thank you for your comment Dixie.
Drape yourself in your own cottage garden, country meadow or forest glen. Learn to “paint” impressionistic landscapes in wool using a combination of wet and needle felting techniques. Starting with a base of specially needle felted wool yardage, we will work from a simple vest pattern and adapt it for felting, needle felt wool flowers, foliage and other imagery of your choice onto the front and back vest pieces, and then wet felt the garment to secure the imagery, felt the seams and shrink the garment to the proper size. Additional embellishments can be added with a felting needle, or you can sew on beads, buttons and other finishing touches. All levels.
