Felt brooch with antique silk flowers - handmade by Feltissimo


A pretty felt brooch with three silk flowers.

This little felt brooch is handmade The felt has been made using turquoise coloured merino wool fibres with additions of silk fibres. The felt has been made by a process of wet felting by hand so that the hooks on the wool all lock together creating a strong fabric.

The flowers have petals made from antique silk chiffon scarves and have a french knot embroidered at the centre.
The whole felt brooch has been stiffened with decovil light and then covered with a pretty English 1960's vintage fabric. A pin has been securely stitched onto the reverse.

The felt brooch measures approx. 6.5cms(2.6") x 3.5cms(1.4") .
 This will come packed neatly in a box which makes it ideal for a gift.
