Since I ha...Robyn, you are a gem and make me smile!<br />Since I had left it half done on the table it was dry. You can easily do it wet too. I cut assorted size holes in it and because it was half felted already, the holes heal while finishing and keep a nice, roundness to them. By doing it halfway through and not earlier, the holes don't distort or change in size too much either. Makes it easy to control. I wet it down, put my hand in a plastic shopping bag, apply hand soap and lightly rub around each hole-not doing anything special. The cuts made by scissors self heal or close up making them look organic. I'm a gentle felted so I take my time and enjoy the process. Even if it does take a month.<br />Wearing it today, snow in Victoria again.

If it i...That was definitely worthwhile finishing. If it is not too dumb a question, how do you put the holes in it? I am glad you feel better now. I need to learn from you, just leave everything else for a while and do MY stuff. Cheers, RobinRobin Machttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14306137274084617478noreply@blogger.com
