A couple of weeks ago I wandered into the Salvation Army store down the street from the school where I work. I had never been in there, for no other reason that I had simply not taken the time to go in. It was a Wednesday afternoon, and lucky for me, it was 1/2 price clothing day. I bought 4 wool skirts to use for wool applique.
I took them room, cut them apart and felted them. Three of the skirts came out really nice, one just ok. (the red plaid one didn't do too well). I am so excited over the way they turned out. Now I just need to find a wool applique project to use them in. If anyone has a great suggestion for a cute fall applique pattern that uses wool I would love to hear about it. I am also thinking about dyeing some of the wool. Can't wait to see how that would turn out.

What a find!!! WTG!!! I'm not much of a wool appliquer (is that a word? lol) but I know Jan Patek has some really cute patterns - you might google her and see! Looking forward to seeing your project!!
Blessings
