I was given a hand dyed silk scarf to needle felt fibers onto. The silk was so light that the fibers dragged it down and I hated it as a scarf. So, I cut it in half and hand appliqued one half to some gorgeous hand dyed brown fabric. I used a thick fabric that I bought in quantity at a yard sale for the batting and it really shows off the quilting. I needed a little more sparkle so I hand stitched the ribbon yarn around the outside after binding the quilt.
There are a variety of fibers and the needle felting went very quickly.
I let these pieces dangle a little.
