    This is beautiful! Makes me wonder about layering feathers into wool before felting.

    This is gorgeous Clare - wonderful colours, scrunchy texture and lovely stitch too - all my favourite elements. I'm sure the exhibition will generate plenty of local interest and have lots of visitors. Good Luck.
