I bought this gorgeous fabric at the Sewing For Pleasure show last week (egged on by my companions.) It is a thick woollen base and the swirls are yarns which have been felted in. It was very tricky to sew, particularly sewing the collar on through several thicknesses.

Is it lined? It is fabulous.

Looks terrific and the colours are great. It's snowing here right now, I feel like sewing something nice and warm too.

What an incredible job you have done here Sue. I love the colours. I have to ask.......did you line it? Sarah.

Yes I did.

Beautiful! I'm going to save your picture for inspiration as I have a felting machine, but not many ideas for using it!

I have one as well, but I haven't produced anything worth showing yet! (I bought it at the same time as my embroidery machine.)

The main thing I use it for is to fuse water soluable film such as Vilene together to make bigger pieces. It works great for that!

And remember those who persuaded me that the fabric was me!

What irresistable fabric! And you actually cut it and made a coat! I would have just kept the fabric for petting, hee hee hee. I envy your visit to the show--nothing of that calibre here (USA, Northwest PA). Well done, would love to see it in person. Hugs, Marji
