My first big felting project – Felted vest with leaves

I have been preparing for the “proper” felted wool items for some time now. This vest is my first attempt to felt a warm and soft wearable items (scarfs are not the same I fill). This vest was made using silver merino roving and coloured blends with mulberry silk. I tryed to make seams as invisible as possible, and almost managed to make it right. At least it is going to be warm.
