Week 2

1. What did you do?

  • Calculated yardage estimate for dress
  • Researched large-scale felting techniques
  • Calculated approximate felt shrinkage
  • Ordered pre-felts
  • Ordered wool dye

2. Problems

  • My LEDs still have not arrived, even though they have been listed as “shipped”.  I’m waiting to hear back from the company on where they are

3.Successes

  • I found a few time and effort saving techniques for felting that I think will aid me on creating my yardage successfully.

4. Schedule?

  • I feel like I’m still alright on my schedule.  I have all of my materials on the way and a good plan on how to proceed.

5. Next Week?

  • The most important task for this next week to complete draping/patterning the dress.
  • If the supplies arrive, I would also like to purchase my wool roving and dye it in preparation for felting.
