Felting.

 
To start of my felting, I began by laying down a towel, getting a bottle of water and getting some bubble wrap this would stop the water from going all over the table later on. I then choose the felt which I wanted and got the pieces all together. I then began by ripping the felt into little pieces.

 
By the felt been in little pieces I was able to make sure that it was all joined on top of each other with no gaps in it, so later on the felt would all stay together.

 
I then choose coloured felt, which yet again linked into my autumn theme again. I used these colours to create a pattern, mine was trees and leaves. This I thought would lead and follow the drawings I'd been drawing in my  sketch book and on my visual sheets. I then began to pour water all over the piece and then I rolled the piece up in bubble wrap makeing it into a sasuage. I then had to roll it for a long amount of time, makeing sure that all the felt was stuck together. My final piece didnt contain any felting as I dont think it was my strongest piece in the project and I didnt enjoy doing it. Although my felting sample did work better then what I thought it was going to do.
