This latest project utilises a tweed jacket that I purchased from an opportunity (thrift or charity) shop. As the basis of my project was a tweed jacket, I decided on an English woodland theme. All images have been felted directly onto the jacket, rather than stitched.
Most materials have been re-cycled, where available. For example, instead of buying wool roving, I sourced discarded wool yarn and made my own wool batts.
This Jacket is hand-made by me and one of a kind; you will not find another.

This jacket is hand-made by needle felting and the process pushes wool into the inside of the jacket. Therefore, there is a slight mirror effect on the inside and lining of the jacket.
