Our offices are in the remote hi-tech zone. There're no shopping mall, no grocery store but a peaceful harbour. Usually I like to stroll along the promenade after lunch. It's cool to walk along and see the music fountian in a hot summer day. These days weather forecasts are no good, showers or thunderstorms are expected for the whole week. Well, just grasped the lunch time to do a simple thing.
My colleagues J & K are interested in wool felt. This day my pleasure to guide them to make an iPhone pouch.
They laid the wool and found it's amazing with only water and soap can do such tough goodies.
After steps of laying, fulling, rubbing.....
Here the finished looks. Both sides are pretty. .
My imagination related to the lavender field in Gorde, Provence for the color of purple.
Field with little yellow flowers among lavender.
The blue one recalls my friend's painting drawn in France, also fields of lavender.
Indeed K wanted it an aqua look with seaweeds and tortoise. Where's the tortoise? We don't have time to make the details. Anything goes well with own imagination.!!
Here're steps of making.
J & K said it's fun like playing magic to have done such pouches without stitches or seams. Going to be smug and we're expected to do a purse or something in detail.
Yes, a few years ago when I saw a pouch in a crafts market of wool felt, I immediately love the amazing craft and dug the ways of making it. I'm most happy to offer the skills just want more people to explore the versatility of wool.
