Felted sweaters projects



I am writing an article about upcycling woollen sweaters (jumpers) into useful items, so have made a number of mouse pads/table toppers/trivets in the last week. Most of them have been (or will be) donated to friends and colleagues :-).



The finished Argyle Table Runner that I showed earlier:



I tried to 'loosen up a bit' in creating these free-form coasters from scraps of felt:





And this might become a new project... A wonky log cabin quilt in felt:

Linda, I love it. I have a bunch of recycled felted pieces that are waiting for a project. I re-used a a half dozen sweaters a few years back including blanket that I made which is pretty cool. I love your free form pieces and the braided-looking argyle table runner is exquisite. Keep on keeping on with this coolest new art form.
