Another experiment – I have to stop saying that, they are all experiments. Today I wondered what denim would do. The short answer is pretty much what the other stuff does, except I broke my first needle. Two pieces of good news resulted from that: the replacement sets are waaay cheaper than I expected, and (huge win) the broken one works almost as well as the regular ones, so I can leave it in there for a while yet.

I like the effect when I slice the piece to be felted on into thin strips – they go down in interesting and unexpected ways. Note the Bright Orange leggy thing…

I am really liking the raggedy edges and distressed look to the surface.
