It took me absolutely ages to complete because I wasn't sure how to create the depth required. I bought myself some felting needles and after wet felting added layers and layers by needle felting. Finally I achieved what I think is a moderate attempt for a beginner. I forgot to take a photo of it framed before I gave it to him at the weekend but I think it looks just as well here without the frame.
Any comments on this or tips for future work in felt would be gratefully received

I'm working on mastering landscapes too, but not with much success. This is lovely.

Thanks Rebecca, I struggled a lot with it. I was reasonably happy but it isn't what I will choose to do in the future. I found it rather restricting. I'm going to attempt vessels next, when I have the time.
Lovely colour and texture!It is finished, or will you add some stitching?
Yes Gunnel, it is complete. I didn't do any stitching on it. I framed it and gave it to my son for his birthday. He was thrilled with it as it is a constant reminder of his treking holiday in New Zealand.
