A year in & I decided to try an Advanced class – and so glad I did. Having spent most of my youth with GSDs I adore the breed & miss having one, so this was just wonderful. Not as perfect as I wanted but I accept I’ve a lot yet to learn & lots more practice etc to undertake, Thanks so much for taking the time to provide it!

I think your birds look so real. Somehow the fiber choice and placement make the birds look like they are really covered in real feathers. You are so artistic. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for your reply. I saw on the discussion that someone else had not used prefelt and you were going to send them some working outs for roving….
I will be doing a test sample to work out shrinkage and compare to your shrinkage rates.
Thank you for the tip of silk over the top…I did wonder as many of my felted things pill and I have not used silk on top so great tip.

Hi Laura, great to hear you’re starting on the skirt!

Unfortunately, the pattern is designed for prefelt — using roving will require a completely different shrinkage calculation.
Switching to a different material will also mean recalculating the shrinkage factor.

You can leave out the fabric on the top layer, but the results won’t be the same. And yes it will peel easily.

The skirt size is UK 12 / EU 38.

Bought this ages ago and actually looking at doing this now..have a few qs..
1. Can I use roving instead of prefelt? If so how much will i need?
2. Im going to use a different material that is feltable for the base layer and will do a test sample.
3. If I dont use a fabric ontop, will my skirt pill? What’s the disadvantage of not using a top layer of fabric?
4. What size does this skirt finish at? How do I calculate for my actual size?

I loved this course! Kimberly, you are an encouraging teacher with relaxed methods and “as you like it” style. My moon is great for a “first moon”. I will do another small one, I think in yellow/orange but will wait until fall to begin!
