From mohair curls to . . .



These soft and silky mohair curls were the inspiration for another butterfly wing design - the hundreds of combinations of wing patterns lend themselves well to felting.






This time the wings are lacy and I ended up adding some blue wool too - after using my Baby Lock Emellisher to needle felt the mohair and wool on to water soluble fabric, free motion stitching was used and it left a lacy effect once the stabilizer was washed out the piece wet felted.
