One Mother Of A Throw!

I can't seem to get this edit file to work, but this is the throw with the finished pattern. It's still in the 'fusing' stage. I think I'll be rolling it all night at the rate I'm going. I want to keep it out side (wraped up, of course!) until tomorrow. It's supposed to be warm and sunny. I'm hoping thermal heating will help a bit in the rolling stage.??


I've been trying my best to get all of my commitments completed, some take a little longer than others. This is a throw that I'm making for a very patient and wonderful customer from Baltimore. We've basically have gone back and forth with emails and pictures for color and design concept for-e-v-e-r!!! But I have to say, that I'm putting on the finishing touches (and the fun part!) right now and hope the weather holds up so I can take this outside to roll.

.....hmmm, I just saw a video of a fellow felter doing a felting 'stomp' while rolling her work with her husband. Maybe a little music is in order and I can corral some of my kids to help out???

Hey That was me & my Mench rolling felt on the deck. I got out my iphone the next day and carried on to the 'beat'. Well several beats actually. Worked great....but I haven't been so sore since the beginning of snowboarding season!
