Pink!
On my last post I showed you a sneaky peek of the ripples and ruffles of the nuno felted piece I made for Ann’s challenge. Well, here’s the finished piece in full:
Here it is from another angle:
It’s kind of double-nuno because I started with some pieces of cotton gauze that I’d dyed a while ago. I wanted it to be extra sturdy to make a camera case out of it:
I really liked how it turned out, so I thought I’d make a similar piece. I measured this one carefully to make a book cover out of it. I also added some wisps of orange, beige and white to the merino at each end to match the patterns and colours of the fabric.
You can see the texture more from this angle:
And of course, a supermacro close up 🙂
I have just one more piece I made from this fabric, but it is still drying.

Lovely! The colors remind me of the Dreamsicle ice cream bar. With summer somewhere in the future, it’s sure to be a hit. (It’s still only in the 40s in the Chicago area.)
Thanks, Marilyn 🙂
We had a bit of warm weather here, but it’s back to being really cold again
It turned out great Zed. It’s the best use of Pink I can think of.
Thanks, Ann 🙂
Lovely bit of nuno – it’ll make a pretty camera case!
Thanks, Lyn 🙂
I hope it will.
I think it looks great zed, I really love the orange on pink to, its very cool xoxo
Thanks, Kaz 🙂
I think I planned the colours better for the second one.
Lovely texture, post pics of the finished case too if you can!
Thanks, Terri 🙂
I will do.
The color is wonderful. We underestimate the power of mixing the warm hues.
Thanks, Judy 🙂
Nice Zed – I like the way you did the folds in the fabric. Looking forward to seeing the camera case.
Thanks, Ruth 🙂
