Ghost clothing

Spent the afternoon happily messing around with wet wool and bits of plastic. My aim being to make some clothes for the ghost puppet.

Wet felting using resists (recycled bits of packing plastic sheets in this case) means I don’t need to sew anything. The end user being a marionette means that I don’t need to worry about it fitting comfortably. Using a combination of needle felting and wet felting means I can stab the clothes into position.

Every is now shrunk more or less to the right size and tomorrow I’ll hopefully get her more or less complete. Apart from the stringing which takes ages.
