I managed to get quite a bit of felting done this week. I made a cover for the handle of my teapot so I can stop burning my fingers.

I discovered my felt background for a picture I am making was in the dryer way to long and was completely felted. I guess I turned it onto a longer time than I thought.  Had to redo it.  Here is the redone one.
